It's just a thought, based on nothing but excited speculation on my part. (I still think that there's a chance that "accuracy" may have been one of the least priorities of both the journalist and Mr. Grover, well behind the importance of riding the coattails of Kindle-hype, and that the mongrels will try to sell us a Nokia N810 Internet Tablet as an "ebook device" ).

One reason I think we have shortages is that the Vizplex screen is only made by PVI and because of all the different devices using the same screen, there is a shortage of screens. We have the 505, Gen3, Kindle, V3, NuuT, STARiBOOk, and some others all using the same Vizplex screen. So now I think we'll be having a shortage of these screens and that is what (IMHO) is causing the problem.
