I'm sure it will. Not entirely, never completely, there's always a room for books as we know them, but I am convinced the majority of our reading material will be fully digital before too soon.
I don't think that necessarily means the end of publishers and publishing houses: if anything the need for a filter, for help to find quality content in this sea of mediocrity will increase.

Only? For how long have we had viable alternatives? I can't stand reading more text than necessary on my laptop. With my ebook reader, on the other hand ... It's early days still, but the path is pretty clear.
