If they really wanted a monopoly, I can't help thinking they wouldn't have allowed RTF, TXT, etc.
I thought about that, but without some ability to use other formats, the reader would be unsellable. The pricing is just close enough that for $2 I would rather have the formatting done by Sony than play with the clit and bookdesigner combination. So they pick up the extra $ and control the system.
