A new version doesn't mean long haul, unfortunately. Sony sometimes hangs around a LONG time before deciding to give up. Their music store is a good example.

Or the Betamax. Or the minidisc. Or the UMD.

I've no doubt they are making money just off the Kindle aura effect, as well.

I love Sony as a hardware maker, but have absolutely no faith in them beyond the next day. The 505 is a nice device, but their idiocy in its store and such (and it's crappy interface) don't breed confidence. If they were serious they'd address these issues.
