Hype

Sony has kicked Amazon "in the Kindle" with the announcement of a half-million books ready for the Sony product.

Hype. These titles are all out of copyright. Most, if not all, are available through other sources. The deal is not exclusive to Sony, other firms will be able to use it. ePub? Do we really need another format?

Still not the "killer app" stage for eBooks, as much as I use them myself!
