3. I own a Sony reader and I buy ebooks from anywhere that (a) offers a compatible format (of which there are many) and (b) a competitive price. Actually, I have no choice but to be a bookstore tart because of 1 and 2 above.
The situation will be roughly the same for anyone not in the USA (possibly slightly less bad for Canadians).
What we really need is an analysis that reflects price and availability world-wide - that's the only way to tell which readers/stores provide the best service.

Interesting problem that I didn't even know about. We'll look into how we might be able to provide this information. Thanks!
