In my book "His Robot Girlfriend", devices similar to ebooks are called TexTees (TexTee singular). My idea was that computers as a seperate device would eventually disappear as all other household devices gained computer-like functionality. So the main character surfs the web (and buys his robot) using the VueTee (TV).
Now a lot of people I know who've read the book, but don't have their own ebook reader, often ask me what I'm reading on my TexTee.
