Sellius Maximus: Sony (SNE) to Bundle Entire 'Potter' Series with Next eReader

August 16, 2011 5:01 PM EDT
According to a report from The Register Tuesday, Sony (NYSE: SNE) may include the entire line of Harry Potter books in a bundle deal with the launch of its next e-reader in November.

Potter is expected to make his electronic debut in October with the launch of Sony-sponsored Pottermore, and "online reading experience."

The series won't be available through traditional e-tailers like Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN) until sometime in 2012. For those who want to get Potter electronically, the only way will be a Sony device.

The Register notes Sony has confirmed the development of a next-generation e-reader, but would not issue a statement about Potter.

Sony closed 1.8 percent lower Tuesday.
