An interesting price comparison. Just looked at a book that I found in the reviews in NYT today, called: "The Cookbook Collector" by Allegra Goodman. At Amazon the hardcover book costs 15.21, the Kindle version costs an amazing 18.04. At the Sony book store the same book costs 9.99, i.e. is half the price if the Kindle version! iBooks doesn't even have it. So here it will be buying from Sony and reading it via Txtr on the iPhone.
