Listing the price of the readers as "about £200" hurts the credibility of the author too.
Bitter experience tells us that any technology that makes it to the UK is almost always priced as if the USD:GBP exchange rate were 1:1. That means that if the devices are indeed released here we can expect the Sony Reader to be priced at £299 and the Kindle at £399.
Also, if we do see the Kindle over here I'd be very surprised if we get free network access thrown in for the life of the device. We might get a years worth of free ebook downloads, if we're lucky.
