I agree. There are many e-books. There aren't, however, that many compared to the overall number of books out there.
I re-checked my Amazon wishlist. Of 20 or so books, 2 are available as e-books. (I checked Connect and Fictionwise.)
I'm Joe casual. If I spent an hour or two looking into the Sony reader, and found that only two of the books I want are available, I'd pass on spending $300 for the Reader. I'm sure that there are many others like me.
I want to steer the device. I don't want it to steer me. In other words, I want to tell it what I want to (and can) read, and not vice-versa.
