And even then I think there's a big enough niche of people who want e-ink devices to keep them around.
Now once there are tablets with screens like Pixel Qi etc. that have a reflective mode comparable to e-ink--and those have been out long enough to drop in price $300 or less, dedicated readers may get scarce.
But even then I could see dedicated readers being like $50 for the people who do nothing but read and don't want the distractions of other functions etc.
