Adam, That Sony Daily Edition (PRS-2121), when it comes out, will have connection ONLY to the Sony Store. Doesn’t that sound like something you’d expect from the actual ‘store’ it’s going against?

Through the Sony store will allow access to the Overdrive collection of e-books at one’s local library, many local libraries don’t have a great collection. And for some reason, the wireless won’t be able to download to the Sony Daily Edition from the library — it’ll need a computer for that.

No direct access to the web either. The Kindle’s cellular wireless may be slowww but it goes anywhere you tell it to and is great for lookups when out and away from one’s computers and sometimes quite decent on mobile-optimized sites.

    But I am hoping Amazon will support ePub (since they bought Stanza especially) and in mid-June, Bezos did say the Kindle will accept more file formats.
