It looks like not only Barnes & Noble is trying to compete with the Kindle and Amazon's E-Book store. Google announced last Thursday that it will have an ebook market that can be used by "anyone with a web browser". They did, though, rule out any possibility of a Google-made E-book Reader.
Google's service, called Google Editions will also allow users to transfer e-books from services such as Amazon or Barnes & Noble. Google Editions is set to debut in early 2010.
This will most likely hurt sales of the Kindle and Sony E-Book readers. It will most likely cut into sales of services such and Barnes & Noble and Amazon's online E-Book stores. Let's hope this project doesn't turn out like Google's ill-fated Google Books project, will sparked a huge legal debacle.

I do still like real books.
I prefer real books, although my brother has the Sony reader.
