Yes, I think e-readers' convenience and light weight would make them ideal for travel but in that capacity they are still complementary, supplementary to books. The idea raised by several respondents here that the e-reader could replace most books entirely is disturbing for both reader and author.
Do you think these 40-70 -something women would want to switch entirely to an e-reader?
