This is entirely speculative on my part, but it seems to me that the widening market of ebook readers is making Amazon sweat a little.

EPUBReader is a fast and lightweight HTML5 based ebook reader. Kindle refusing to allow easy use of the most common open digital book standard was a glaring downside to Amazon’s mostly-closed system.
