The existence of a niche doesn't mean a product isn't effectively dead.
I can see the appeal of E-Ink, but the benefits (long battery life, high contrast, little eye strain) don't really outweigh the negatives for me (mainly that you can't use it for anything else and therefore have to carry yet another device). And to me, AMOLED or a good IPS LCD set to less than retina-searing brightness levels is close enough (I'm currently reading my eBooks on a Galaxy Nexus).
