It's an eink device that plays nicely with drm free ePUBs, PDFs, html, and a variety of formats along with books with Adobe Adept ADE, regardless of where they are purchased. I have no problem buying via USB from Sony, for example.

Surely you cannot be comparing a single use device with an iOS phone or Tablet--apples (no joke) and oranges. If Kobo releases a tablet and you can only buy Kobo books on it, then we will have something to talk about.
