Do you think tablet technology will make e-readers obsolete?

Asked by iamthemob (17196points) September 15th, 2010

My personal feeling is no – I think they occupy different parts of the market. Although multitasking is the rage (and should be), dedicated devices will still be useful. Considering that e-ink is easier on the eyes for reading, and that the price point of these readers has (and likely will) continue to drop, I think that they can maintain market position. I feel like the issue is much the same as the question of whether tablet technology can replace iPods and similar devices.

Anyone else?
