It will not spell the end of e-ink screens (IMO) so long as it's backlit and it has battery life <10 hrs.
Among other features that iPad doesn't have:
1. iBooks is initially US-only
2. No built-in camera
3. No USB ports
4. No memory card read
5. Keyboard dock sold separately
6. No multi-tasking
7. No Adobe Flash support
8. Can only run Apple-sanctioned apps
9. Can only access iTunes videos and music
10. Lacks HDMI port
11. Screen is 4:3 aspect ratio, not 16:9 widescreen
12. No full GPS support

And when the Kindle DX came out, it could do even less. Still does less now.
