Take a look at the music industry. I can listen to my music on a wide array of devices and buy my music from a wide array of stores. I can get very high quality Classical recording from a company in Europe and can buy music from either Apple or Amazon, and play music from all three without having to worry about where it came from.
Yes, I agree.
You would think that stores like Amazon and Kobo would want to be able to sell their books to readers who use other kinds of reading devices.

As for my perfect ereader - my Sony PRS-T1 has everything I want - small size, direct Overdrive library access for when I am away from my home computer, and good dictionaries - if only the dictionaries didn't lock up
