I hope it's not the case.
Laptops/PCs are pretty useless to me in terms of reading and marking up academic books, scholarly journal articles etc. I just print them out (or buy the paper book) and highlight and scribble notes until my hearts content.
So I really want a large touch/stylus screen reader/tablet to replace paper for that purpose. Laptop/PC will remain for everything else--data analysis, writing papers etc. etc.
The device could add in internet, e-mail, PDA etc. as that would be handy in a device that should be thinner and lighter than a laptop. I seldom take my laptop anywhere other than multi-day trips as it's a pain to lug around.
