Sure.
And there is a certain segment of the population that is still buying eReader and LIT ebooks. Doesn't mean the market as a whole cares about them.
They're not exactly relevant to the future of the industry, are they?
Sony was a pioneer in eInk.
Sony then became a close follower to other market leaders.
The question now is whether they can recapture lost ground (and relevance) or will fall further behind.
BTW, out of curiosity: what other approach *could* Sony have taken if they *had* known what K3 was going to be like and what it would cost. This *is* Sony, after all.
