Google eBookstore

I was really excited about the opening of the Google eBookstore; unfortunately, and depressingly, eBookstore is made of fail:

I'm not reading a book on my computer.  I'm not reading it on my cell phone, either.  And I'm not going to buy from a store that doesn't let me download (i.e. "own") what I purchase.  eBookstore is, consequently, useless, to me, and it seems I'm stuck with Sony's overpriced store for now.

Google, until you support ePub for all of the books you sell, or at least give customers enough information for them to tell whether or not they're throwing money away on you, you won't be getting any more of mine. ooks you sell, or at least give customers enough information for them to tell whether or not they're throwing money away on you, you won't be getting any more of mine.
