Future of Books

When a new hard cover comes out, if a Kindle edition is also available, per this article, The iPad Revolution by Sue Halpern 35% of all sales are in the Kindle Edition.

Wow!

Does that affect children's books? Or is this because new hard covers are around $25, and Amazon forced publishers to do $9.99 for a Kindle edition. Should I be worried about the future of my online Chinese bookstore?

Disclaimers :-)

I am very interested in the iPad, but with no Traditional Chinese support yet I just don't have the reasons to convince my family we need it. :-)

And yes, I plan on getting the new iPhone in June...
