Ok, perhaps I shouldnt have said 'never', perhaps unlikely. I can see certain advantages reading things on a PDA - as you said, reading during boring classes/lectures and such.
I believe books themselves will never die, ebooks are great as a delivery service and are incredibly useful for research - but it won't ever extend to novels and the like. So certain aspects of the libraries we know today wont exist - but a large part of it will.
Aside from being on a mobile phone. I've seen modified metronomes that do this, but can spell out long sentences - of course they aren't designed for long distances. Several slashdotters have already pointed out that Disney had a toy that did the same thing.

I'd like to see a discussion between to of these bots. Could be interesting to say the least:
1, Bob: Whats your name
2, Eva: My name is Eva, whats yours
3, Bob: Bob....
