Oh, yes. Someone please explain this again. I'm lost over the Borders / Sony agreement. Right now, if you look at Border's web site, they show prominently at the top "Teamed with Amazon.com". So Sony is climbing in bed with Borders who is already in bed with Amazon. Amazon is about to become Sony's major competitor in this business. Is Amazon breaking up with Borders or is this going to be some very strange threesome? And is the Borders / Sony relationship still pending or is it certain?
