I agree that Sony should open their hardware for additional stores, but why not keep their ebook store open, competition and more options never hurts.

I can already buy ebooks in epub format at Borders, Books-a-Million, Kobo and a few others plus the Sony store for my 900. But it sure would be nice if ebooks purchased at B&N were readable without breaking the DRM right off the bat.
