I firmly believe the general book reading population would prefer a device that can buys books at the touch of a button and can borrow books from the library easily and be able to turn pages with a flick on the screen.

Perhaps you are correct about the touch screen, but I don't particularly like the idea of sacrificing crispness and clarity of what I'm reading for the novelty of a touch screen.
Also, we'll see how quick libraries are to adopt this technology, I don't see it happening very quickly with the economy in it's current state. Non-profits are cutting their budgets to the bone and I don't expect Adobe to give away this technology or the publishers to give much by way of help either.
