Device details aside, the article is right to point out that CONTENT is Sony's weak link vs. Amazon, and that isn't entirely Sony's fault. Their mistake was trying to become a bookseller in direct competition with Amazon. If they had decided to do what they do (hardware) and had partnered with Amazon's competition for content, then we'd have a more competitive situation. Borders.com, for example. But instead of creating a true e-bookstore with Borders, Borders just links back to the Sony store. Ridiculous.
