My thoughts are mixed on this article. Although I definitely wouldn't call it a flop, I look at it more as up and coming. If you look at the digital music industry before the Ipod came in, they could had written the same thing about that subject. There were so many failures that came out until 2001-2002. Now when you think digital music, there is one device that comes to mind.
At this point as great as our Readers are, you still dont see them all over, and there is still not a lot of recognition out there, or high enough demand in the E-book market. I think E-Ink in general is beginning to, and will continue to change that. We are definitely alot further along tech wise where e-books are concerned, but there is still a long way to go before this becomes a technology that everybody has and uses, and/or wants. I think when we are able to integrate magazines and newspapers in the same page format as the paper versions, and popular comic books for the kids, then we will see significant growth.
