No question Sony is considering (or even already working on) a future version of the Sony Reader. They'll better do, if they believe the whole e-book biz to be a success. The question Mossberg doesn't answer is when the Sony Reader would be replaced. Obviously it's not going to be today or tomorrow (let's be serious, the Reader just came out!).
And like some of you I don't think that simple features like searching inside a book would require a new device - a firmware update should be sufficient.
