I suppose you could theoretically write a reader that grokked the Mobipocket format and that ran on the Sony. DRMed books might present problems...

If the Sony Reader takes off, Mobi might be motivated to do their own port. Does Sony actually offer an SDK or any developer assistance for the platform?
