It's supposed to be 1Q 2008. That's also when Borders is supposed to start opening their new store concept, as well. The new stores are intended to blend the best of B&M with the digital media. They specifically mention buying and downloading digital music, as well as having "mix-and-burn" music kiosks. I'm hoping it will include the new Sony-Borders e-book line of content.
By the way. Has anyone else noticed that Sony seems to be putting a lot more emphasis on the "...and your PC" part of "The eBook Store for Sony's Reader and Your PC"? I think they've identified having a desktop-/laptop-based reader as a marketing edge.
