i'll concede amazon is new at the electronic hardware ereader game.
but they are an established pro at the content side of things.
sony's lack of experience here, and more importantly, their inability to have major influence over publishers, puts them at a disadvantage - how big a disadvantage will be determined after this plays out over the next year or so. by then amazon may have 400,000 kindle books and we'll be able to better determine if the sony business model can withstand the test of time.
