With the Kobo having a much lower price point, pearl ink and same touch technology.
The Nook having a comparable offer.
It's hard to see where Sony will go from here. They have a good product, I just bought mine and am happy with the purchase regardless of the new models. However it's going to be really hard for them to improve on the current product.
There's no new e-reader screen technology for them to implement, and none coming out this year according to press releases.
There's not really many features left, except social technology (shudders) or attempting to deal with the flickers (not sure I like the Nooks attempt, makes the flickers more visible imo).
With Sony's having reduced availability and going on clearance sales in physical stores, you have to wonder whats going to be the future of the Sony Reader.
