Think of a netbook ... HP has several models under US$500.

But if you have a Borders store (Kobo) or a Barnes and Noble store (Nook) nearby, at least "touch and feel" what the "basic" eReaders feel like. I can certainly see a case where BOTH a netbook AND a Kobo would please someone.

Don't tell anyone, but I just ordered a little HP netbook for my wife ... It is not going to replace her Kindle2 - but supplement it. The one I chose has ...

2GB RAM
Decent processor
Windows 7 Home Premium
250GB 7200RPM hard drive
10.1" display
802.11b.g.n
2.5 pounds
3 years of support and warrantee from HP

Cost? About what the 2GB RAM ALONE cost me just a few years ago.
