Where I think ebooks will become dominant:

- Flexible-text books, where the most important thing is the text itself, while the text's formatting can be flexible and easily modified without affecting the book itself.
- Books in the public domain.
Where I think pbooks will remain dominant:
- Long-term books, especially books where the way they appear is of importance (such as books given as gifts).
- Type of books where the current limitations of ereaders is a factor, such as very large books with full color pictures.

That's a very nice list, that all is true!
