Amazon isn't stupid (IMHO they are), they would never abandon it, they would sell it. It is worth too much money to just walk away. Since they are not planning to use that moneymaking site for the Kindle, they might sell it but I doubt it. They acquire businesses not sell them.
If they were really really smart they would figure out that there are 6 or 7 oodles of people out there who do not want to bother with computers to get books and would love the service they are offering. Then for the rest continue to offer the Kindle but with the ability to use Mobipocket with drm and if you are an owner of a Kindle, you really really discount the price of all Mobipocket books they buy from their site. However they probably won't be that smart.
