Amazon may be around in 10 years but in 10 years will Amazon have decided that it needs to change ebook formats and discontinue current formats as a way to enhance its bottom line by requiring Kindle users to buy new machines? Or will the Kindle become the Betamax of ebook readers as all other device maufacturers go with a different format that is more widely accepted?

The status of Amazon in 10 years as regards ebooks and ebook reading devices is as speculative as whether iRex will be around in 10 years.
