Sony had the ability to buy, but didn't buy as many as they were capable of. If eInk was going to offer Sony first crack at the Pearl displays, before Kobo and nook, why limit the number of displays to a number less than the competition?

Also, eLink? Don't you mean eInk? No "L".
Do you know why they are limited? Is it all they want to buy or how many eInk will sell them?

Either way, Sony is selling all the readers they make. AT THEIR PRICE.

Basic business, if you sell all your product at your price, why lower your price?
