I'm a bit disappointed by the announcement. Not so much with the 700 -- it seems a capable enough device (although leaving out WIFI was a strategic blunder) -- but in a "is that all there is?" sense.
I would have liked to see Sony introduce a cheaper device (perhaps a plastic-bodied 5" screen) to entice more folks to e-reading.
I'd also like to see a roadmap of where they are going with the 505's firmware. Will there be a bug update? Addition of SDIO WIFI? Nokia's done this pretty well with OS updates for their tablets. Even with the elderly 770 they produced a no-support "hacker's edition" OS update.
Why not open the store to all platforms and make it International.
Sony software for the Mac/Linux platforms. There's really no excuse not to.
