The "analysts" may very well say, "Organically grown produce will never replace the regular stuff!" but who the hell cares? Ipads may very well outsell dedicated ebook readers 50-1, but who the hell cares? Hammers will outsell iPads, too. Who the hell cares?

I'm really tired of the way America views everything as a big ol' football game where you have to have a winner and a loser!
Agree 100%. Like I said, dedicated readers will be here to stay, even if most best seller e-book purchases are read on tablets and other devices besides dedicated readers--are not going anywhere.

So the bookworms/avid readers have nothing to worry about. Your devices will be there regardless of the size of that niche.

It's not some zero sum end game where only dedicated readers or multifunction devices has to win. Both can, and will, co-exist in the market.
