I thought it was an excellent letter and I applaud you. I also think it is not appropriate to only compare the K2 with the Sony 700. What about the PRS 505 and whole barn full of other readers out there? It would be like in their car issue they only looked at GM vs Ford ignored all the other players. Granted, the market share of the others is probably relatively small compared to Sony and Kindle combined.... unless you start looking at the European market (which I suppose they don't care about).

I really hope they respond in some manner. Thanks for sharing.
