Tablets are not true competitors. You can-t read books in it. You can browse the net and to things you do in a leptop computer, but not read a real book like you do on a Sony reader.

Besides, Sony has a good market worldwide. I remember seeing somewhere that Sony is the brand that sells more ereaders in the global market so i am pretty sure they are on the good way.
I agree with all you said about Sony. I loved my PRS-505. I am amazed at how the Kindle is being marketed so successfully and I expect it to take more and more of the eink market share.

I also disagree with most everyone here about tablets. I replaced my Sony with an iPad and I find it just as comfortable to read on, whether I'm using iBooks or the Kindle App. I especially like the new feature in the Kindle app that lets me at a touch of the screen change from reading black on white to white on black to black on beige.
