Given that even the list price for the complete collection in paperback is $20 (and as noted above, Amazon sells it for $13.57 plus shipping), I'd say $9.99 is reasonable. I'd go as high as $12, I suppose, since I do really like Clarke, and it would be convenient to have all his short stories in one set, nicely formatted. (Note that Clarke is sadly no longer with us, so I'm ambivalent over whether his works should still be in copyright, but legally, they are.)
I don't have a Sony unit, though, so the price of the Sony Reader format is irrelevant to me in any case.
