I'm afraid the Sony product will now die a slow death like their MP3 players. Now that the profit margins are gone with the Connect store, I expect it will be shuttered in less than a year and Sony will move onto the next great "high-margin" gadget (that is the Sony way).

Get the Kindle or regret it! It's a no-brainer really.
I disagree. I have a 505 and I would get a 505 over the Kindle. I am not too find of the Kindle overall. I do think Sony can compete especially if they come out with the 505 in other countries.
