here's the thing. the reason bestsellers are called bestsellers is 'cause they sell the best. and so it's pretty likely that a high number of people who buy ebook readers will want to read some of those bestsellers. when they can't, they're going to feel very ripped off, which they probably will be if they buy the ebook readers to read the books that they - the mainstream public - normally read (ie bestsellers). the end result will be that whether they return their jetbook or just write the whole situation off to experience, there's a new person who is unlikely to try ebooks again in the future. that's not good for those of us who want publishers to make electronic versions of more books, the makers of jetbook or of other readers.
