I concur that the situation is analogous to the "mp3 player" situation. There's a lot of diversity, but IMO this serves to make the big players stand out in relief.

One thing that may work is the Plastic Logic approach. Rather than aim for a broad audience, they are targeting a specific niche. Hopefully that will work out for them.
