I actually burst out laughing when I read this in the paper edition of Wired. They ran the whole article as a series of "choices" at the bottom of pages. Somehow I doubt they'll regain their former popularity. When I compare some of the "young adult" books that were avaialble when I was a kid to the wide range of material available to my children, I don't forsee modern kids being excited by these books, cell phones or no cell phones.
