Bilbo, since they are all readers, I don't think that Sony should be able to call its device the Reader.

I think it should be the Sony Kapow reader, not the Sony Reader Kapow Edition.

I think that everyone should have the right to call their devices readers, i.e., the Amazon Kindle reader. A trademark would prevent others from using the word "reader".
