Totally agree with you. If people want a web tablet then buy a NOOKcolor for the same price or pay more and get an iPad. I still cannot believe people can get excited about an eInk web browser!

In my opinion, the 950 is hands down the best eInk based eBook reader and possibly the best eBook reader with any kind of screen. And by eBook I mean books specifically designed for eBook readers using an eBook markup language like ePub, LRF, FB2, MOBI, et cetera. I do NOT consider PDFs to be eBooks. Nor do I consider MP3s, MP4s, web browsing, dish washing, cooking, et cetera to be essential eBook reader functions. IMHO, even the 350 contains every function necessary to make a great eBook reader.
