The problem with the Kindle is that you will be tied into Amazon for most of your content. Sony is switching to ePub and lowering prices at their eBookstore. And the fact that most readers will support ePub means that publishers will take notice and ePub will be one of their supported formats. And if you were to someday get a different reader (not Sony) you'd have a very good chance of your eBooks still being able to be read. Amazon's eBooks are stuck on a Kindle of some kind. So once you go Amazon, you have to stick with Amazon or lose what you bought.
