I really don't think that matters.

The average, mainstream user doesn't care about formats. They're just going to buy a device (a Kindle in this case) buy books from the attached store and be perfectly happy.

All this format stuff only really matters to the "tech nerds" (no offense intended) who are avid readers. Hell, I'm quite tech inclined and I don't give a crap about it. I buy an e-book, read it once and will never touch it again. If it's something I loved and want to read again I'll buy a hardback of it.

Format will have little to no impact on which reader wins the sales wars when e-readers start going more mainstream.
