400$ device plus 10$ per book to technophobic book readers?? I kind of doubt it will catch on. Before Kindle was released I thought it will outsell the Sony by a reasonable margin, but it will be far off from a breakout device with sells in mid hundreds k a year.

Now with all the limitations, unless they change something drastically, I strogly doubt it will outsell the Sony and may not even outsell the Bookeen.
To me the big winners here is Sony since this device makes the Sony reader a much more desirable alternative.
