Certainly--but price alone isn't the only value. You get to a certain price-point and you have to compete with devices that provide a lot more function for that price. With tablets becoming more common...there's going to be a lot of form-factors, prices and functionality out there. I'd need quite a bit of functionality and a particular size to even begin looking at such an expensive device. Not to say it won't fill a need, but I think competition is going to be stiff!

Believe me, I'm all for things being more affordable for all, but you do realise that you're on a forum where just last year, many of it's members paid $300+ for a device that only reads ebooks and in black and white, no less.

The K1's were $300, right? My Sony 505, 700 & 600 were all $300 each. The 505 got my obsession rolling in April, and by Sept I had purchased 2 more Sony's. It wasn't until this year (thank you Amazon) that prices finally dropped. |
