I get you hate Amazon, and that's perfectly acceptable but calling Sony ereaders Cheap is going a bit too far. They are pitting their new ereader without a front light against all the other 'non lighted' ereaders at roughly 1.5 times the cost. Nothing cheap about that.
I have a kindle yet buy all my books from other places, I buy nothing from Amazon, yet I email all my books to Amazon, they store them for me on their servers and send them to my Kindle, exactly the same way they would treat books I would have bought from them. Plus my ereader costs less than the new Sony, and is front lit.
That's the infrastructure and service which makes Amazon the most successful ereader manufacturer and retailer.
