I'm with you. I remember the rumors of a $50 Kindle - presuming one signed up for a year or two's subscription for ebooks - and I thought, "Yeah. I'd buy a subscription for the option to have an eInk reader for $50!". But with the Sony running $299, the Hanlin running (minus the special this week) $329 and the Bookeen *hopefully* coming in under $350 (we'll know more later), I can't see shelling out more than $400 for a 6" reader. Now if it were an 8" or 9" reader, or one of those hypothetical dual-screen Hanlins, yeah, I'd shell out $400 or 500 for one.
