I was going to point this out too. With Borders partnering with Sony, and B&N buying Fictionwise, I don't see Amazon running away with ebooks. If it was just one of them, maybe they wouldn't have much effect. But with both major b&m's having a stake in ebooks and by default, readers, I don't see Amazon and the kindle destroying the market.
