Before 4e came out (as in several years before 4e came out) they were 
talking about a GURPS CD-ROM which would have had some sort of electronic 
version of the Basic Set 3e, and probably Compendiums I & II, on it.

As for GURPS 4e, I don't recall them ever saying anything about producing an 
electronic version of the Basic Set. In fact, from the earliest days they 
said they wouldn't produce any PDFs of any of the 4e books (and later 
changed their minds about PDFs for the non-core books).
