Well...Amazon is not too hot with ebooks here in germany.
I don't really like the idea of the sony Connect store either, but at the moment it seems to be the only "real" way to get a large amount of quality books (if they manage to provide what they promise).
In Germany there is no real market for ebooks...all you can do is download "free" ebooks or look for "pirated" books on p2p...with dubious quality and of course dubious legality...
I'm no fan of DRM and stuff like that, but as long as I buy the book to keep (not 60 day stuff...) it's ok.
10000+ books at launch sounds good to me and if Sony really delivers what they promise with the store I'll support it.
Restrictions on the Device side are quite something different...I don't support that at all!!!
