Great article in the Washington Post about the future of digital readers. An interview with Verizon exec Tony Lewis says he expects Kindle’s competition to launch in 2009.

Already experts are betting that new iPhone apps will “smoke Kindle”, but the Post article points to one huge factor in Kindle’s favor: In terms of solid relationships with publishers, massive traffic, and the ability to price to sell, Amazon is the “Wal-mart of the supply chain”.

It’s not really about connectivity or technology, the Post says, it’s about who has the biggest piece of the book-pie.
