I was thinking today about the prices of the kobo units. Last year Kobo touch started at 100£ if I remember correctly and after some months got to 79£, while the Kindle touch remained around 100£. Now the Kindle PW is 109£ and the Glo is 99£, that means we pay more for Kobo just because of Amazon setting the prices high for their devices.
I mean in 4-5 months the Glo will be sold at 80£.
