Someone needs to read a little Heidegger. A paper book is just as much a work of technology as an ebook reader. And paper is no more "natural" than plastic, it just has an older pedigree.

Separately, I really fail to see how book conventions will change all that much with ebooks. Publishers will still want to hawk their wares, schmooze with their colleagues, and show off their stars.
