This is HUGE, and a huge part of the reason I want a kindle. I do buy books from the store a lot.
I just checked all the same eBook stores as before and the price Sony has is actually slightly better then the rest. Some are even more expensive. Amazon is the only one with a price less then the list price of the pBook. Sony is not really at fault here. We must blame the publishers for making deals with Amazon and not the rest.
