Even though the show was recognized by the ESA, gaming's governing body, before this revelation, now that two of the three major players in video games will be at the show, there's no doubt that it's going to have a place along side all the other major industry shows.
The difference with E For All, of course, is that it's open to the public. It won't be free; ticket prices are still being determined. Additionally, so far it seems that E For All will be smaller than E3 was, since it will be held only in the LACC's South and Kentia halls. The old show filled the whole building.
Also, according to the latest show update on GamePro.com (which is owned by IDG Entertainment, the same company running the expo), the show plans on renting out the Hollywood sign for the show and replacing the 'Y' on the famous sign with the 'e' of the E For All Expo's logo. How's that for making your presence known?

QuoteThe wording here makes it sound as though E for All is a replacement for E3. It's not, but it is endorsed by the ESA. E3 has become the "E3 Media and Business Summit", and takes place this July.

And by the way, that stunt with the Hollewood sign better not happen. I do not want to see that eyesore.
