Sony is planning to release an e-book reader offering the ablility to wirelessly download books. It has a 7-inch touch screen and can get books and newspapers over AT&T's wireless network. Sony's e-book differs from the Amazon's Kindle in that it has an open e-book standard. This means that readers can get books from a variety of stores and move the books to other devices such as cell phones. Sony will also be loaning books from public libraries that are free and to be "returned" after 21 days. The Kindle, on the other hand, only displays books from Amazon's store. The devices books can be placed on are limited to the Kindle, the iPhone, and the iPod Touch.
