In reality, the DRM probably helped them develop a stranglehold on the market, and they didn't remove the DRM until they had the luxury of doing so (or the pressure to do so, if you will) long after establishing a lead.
I have a Kindle 2, but I'm currently using it primarily to read public domain books. I like that there are going to be more sexy gadgets on the market to stimulate competition, but the fact remains that much of Apple's success was due to the dead-simplicity of the iTunes store. Sony, Barnes & Noble, and other competitors will have to make sure that their stores provide both price competition and interface simplicity to match or beat Amazon.

(Personally, I prefer Amazon to both Sony and Barnes & Noble as companies, so I'm going to stay loyal to my Kindle 2...for now...)
