My worry is this:

Amazon owns Mobipocket DRM. The "Kindle Editions" replace Mobipocket DRM. So, what is Amazon going to do with Mobipocket, and what impact is that going to have on devices such as the Cybook G3, iLiad, etc.

I understand that Amazon wants to make money and eliminate competition. But in this case, the competition is largely themselves! By ignoring Mobipocket DRM, they are alienating existing customers and that is just not cool in my book.

Until the dust settles and we have a better idea of where all of this is heading, I'm avoiding the future purchase of any Mobipocket DRM book for my Cybook. I'm going on a one man boycott of giving any money at all to Amazon, directly or indirectly.
