Pure speculation on my part, but if Sony can learn anything from Amazon, it's that the people want to be able to purchase the books straight from their Readers. So, in my opinion Sony will come out with a whole new Reader lineup this fall. Probably "connected" Readers (via some wireless interface), probably a couple of different screen sizes. I hope they don't use the same unfortunate front-light-touchscreen combination that was the PRS-700's downfall.
