Probably no reason to worry about that. Sales of the current models appears to be brisk, and that's most likely the reason for shortages. Besides, late Summer to early Fall is the traditional time for releasing new reader products for Sony (and others).
Might be the end of some of the accessory covers though (at least in their present forms). I don't care for the zipper pouch version that's still available, so I hope there will be new covers coming soon.

Imagine how you will feel if soon all models are backordered and the cheapest unit you can get is a 350 for 500!
