I just don't see how they would do that without resolving the Mobipocket issue first. As soon as they offer Kindle books to non-Kindle owners, the Mobipocket dealers would have a very real complaint about unfair trade practices. I don't know what the solution would be, but it's too big a question to just ignore.
As long as we're speculating, though: Am I the only one who thinks Sony should just buy a majority stake in Borders and take a head-on run at Amazon?
