Lost its edge ? that's an understatement if there ever was one.
Not only it has no front light but it's not HD like the Paperwhite is and no 3G in sight either ...

Only downside of the Kindle is that it does not support epub. But that does not change the fact that the T2 sucks, big time !

In the US market, I cannot see why anyone would buy a Sony. It costs more and does not have more. If you want buttons over pure touch, you would buy a Nook which also has glow. I think Sony will only do well in places where the Paperwhite and Nook are not available.

Sony needs to up its game fast if it wants to stay alive in the market. Is it too late?
