I would never use the phrase "Never happen."

Too much technology is being developed for that. I'd be happy to adopt the new technology, myself, provided:

• It's as easy on the eyes as reading a paper copy.
• It's gotta be at least as cheap.
• I can put in my own unsigned stuff. (Useful for notes, etc. And even though I may not need this to read, it wouldn't be worth my investment of time or money otherwise...
• Any licensing that is done is easy to use and reasonable.
• It's gotta be portable and robust enough to stand up to some pretty bad treatment. I've got some books that I love that are barely held together, they've been through a lot.

If something comes along and meets those requirements, I'll adopt it with no problem. The point is, it's gotta be better than the current system. Simple enough?
