I agree with all of your points and I would like to add that I am thankful to my public library system for offering the Overdrive service, where I can download (for free!) several hundred (and growing) epub and PDF offerings to read on my Sony Reader.

The point I found most interesteing was the thought of a sub 50 or even 20 dollar reader. As you say, they would become almost consumables - vending machines with reader and book bundled for 20 bucks! exciting thoughts, and with the pace of technology, only a matter of time. One other thing I'd like to add to the list - Thank God for eBooks - anything that encourages debate and passion around reading gets a thumbs up from me. I know people personally that are returning to books for the first time since school/college because of ereaders. Great List!
