I’m in charge of writing the e-book gift guide, but it’s sorta hard to recommend items that haven’t been released yet. That IREX reader<\/A>, the nook<\/A>, and the Sony Daily Edition Reader<\/A> are all missing in action. Thanks, guys. Today we take a minute to ask<\/A>, \u201cWhere’s the Sony Daily?\u201d<\/p>\n

It goes on sale (well, for pre-order) today on Sony’s Web site, but Sony says it won’t actually be shipping till sometime between December 18 and January. It won’t actually be in stores till January.<\/p>\n

So it’s safe to say that Sony is cutting it pretty close if it wants it to be a big Christmas seller.<\/p>\n

Things that should eventually help Sony: it’s partnered with Best Buy and Wal-Mart to sell the device there when(ever) it comes out. My elitist New York quick-take: is Wal-Mart really the place to sell a $399 e-book reader? I understand Wal-Mart is a fantastic retail partner, but I don’t really associate the Wal-Mart crowd with reading (more like affordable clothes and groceries), and with reading new-fangled e-books at that.<\/p>\n

So, in summary, don’t be surprised if you can’t get your hands on a Sony Daily in time for Santa Claus this year. I understand waiting a few more weeks doesn’t really make a difference to you and I, but it’s the world<\/i> for Sony. <\/p>\n
