If I were Sony, I'd drop the bookstore and enter into an agreement with one of the better vendors and work out some sort of revenue sharing agreement in exchange for directing traffic to it. <cough> Smashwords <cough>

I bet Smashwords would be willing to sell mainstream books in exchange for having Sony reader users officially directed to them.
I hope never Smashwords. Their meatgrinder conversion is awful. It's just a Word document converted with Calibre and the garbage in the Word document is not nice.
