Sony officially unveils new Readers, drops price of e-books

CNET – “After enduring a couple of rumors and leaks that took the lid off its latest e-readers a little earlier than it would have liked, Sony’s officially announced the two new models: the Reader Pocket Edition ($199) and Reader Touch Edition ($299), both of which will hit stores at the end of the month. The other big news is Sony is going to match Amazon’s e-book pricing, making new releases and best seller titles $9.99 instead of $11.99.”
