Never gonna happen, I know, but I can dream...
If the next gen readers are wi-fi enabled, why not pay in store and download direct to your Sony reader? No need for the mobile networks that are stopping Amazon spread outside the US. No need for Amazon's stranglehold.

It could even be done now to an I-phone with Stanza, that downloads to the phone via wi-fi.
