Amazon and ebooks

My friend Virginia O’Dine just drew this to my attenion:
Amazon.com has notified its publisher and author clients that it plans to cease offering e-books in the Microsoft Reader and Adobe e-book formats.
They’re only going to be selling Kindle ebooks (for the hardware device they make) and Mobipocket — and Amazon.com owns Mobipocket.
Man, I’d love to see that lawsuit: Microsoft suing Amazon over monopolistic business practices!
