I may be wrong, but my understanding was that there are very few books that can only be read on a Kindle. I understand that more books, in raw numbers, are available at the Kindle store than at the Sony store, but for my buying, at least half of all the ebooks I have bought have been from somewhere other than the Sony store.

I've never been able to find a book that I wanted that wasn't available for both platforms. There is the convenience factor of the Kindle, which shouldn't be ignored, but it is just that: a convenience. If I've ever been unable to find an ebook for a title, it was always not available on either platform.
