The problem is when what you imagine crosses the lines of physical impossibility, anything goes. It reminds me of an episode of The Simpsons envisioning the future where Marge takes a photo of the family, the photo comes out the front of the camera and expands into one of those photo-icing cakes. Marge declares (paraphrasing) that "life is so much better now that science has invented magic."
A speck of a lens will never be able to collect as much light as a full-sized lens, and therefore will never take pictures as good as a full sized lens. If we are going to make up magical properties for ebook readers, I want my future convergence device to have the option, at the press of a button, to turn into a pair of fully uniformed Japanese schoolgirls who read aloud to me while pleasuring me in ways illegal in 35 states and the District of Columbia.
