The potential of those eBooks is enormous. They need to get some critical mass and get the price down. When book publishers realize that they can make their books downloadable over the internet and save printing and distribution costs, they will heartily endorse them.

In the meantime, Rocketbooks isn't CF compatible, which is a serious shortcoming. The Softbook isn't clear regarding the upgradable memory, but it doesn't appear that they support CF either.

These are potentially big markets for CF, although it looks like books don't take up nearly as much memory as music or photos.
