Lastly, there is absolutely zero evidence that Sony even intends to stay in the ereader / ebook business. They have done nothing to advance their ebook store experience in more than a year nor anything to expand the ability for the store to appear on many other devices in the way its chief competitors have.
This thread gives some rumors about future Sony Reader...

Well, if Sony discontinues their ereaders I'll look to Nook or Kindle. Kobo ereader is cheap but it has too many compromises with sideloaded books.
