High end Hi-Fi set, High definition monitors, desktop computers, DSLR with several lenses, TV set with BR / DVD, e-ink reader....
No portable device can, as of now, replace all that.

Steve looks toward the low quality market, and he's right: integration and portability are the path to follow.
But high quality and good performance are another thing altogether...
Suggesting that e-ink is somehow in the league of any high-end specialist equipment is a joke. For specialized reading, e-ink doesn't even compare with the legacy paper devices it's trying to replace.
