Now, once e-books are a reality

What exactly are you looking for? If you're talking about being able to download pdf or any other simple, single file of the book you will have two choices:

  1. Restricted computing (aka DRM)
  2. An indefinate wait for some silly company to do it and go broke.

If you're just looking for reasonable accessibility, have a look at Safari. It's an awesome service in terms of price, selection, and nifty little features like code searches.
