I am a happy owner of the prs-505, Since it's purchase i have been going book mad finding out of print titles, doing various conversions of my existing books and purchasing loads of new books also.
My worries started when I thought about where i have been spending my $$, I have purchased from the sony-connect store exactly 4 books. everything else I have been buying from fictionwise,diesel books and others doing the nessary conversion to get them onto my reader. i have spent at least $200.00 on new books in just the last 2 months, and am about to make another large order from fictionwise that will bring the total up over $350.00 not a dime of it is going into sony's pockets.

granted I am in the tiny Ebook geek slice of there market, I can't help but think that sony may vary well think this whole ebook thing is a flop ..

Am I a little silly to be worried about this?
