If Apple's reader software isn't exactly what I need, you can bet there will be many other reader apps to take its place.

As much as I like my Sony 300, as things stand right now I would not buy a Sony reader. The main reason is that there's not a Sony app for my iPhone and upcoming iPad. If Amazon made a 300 sized reader, I'd probably get it. Point is that there's a product niche for a properly sized - not just the screen but the form - reader between the iPhone & the Pad, that is only imperfectly filled.
