I just noticed that both ebookreaders.nl and apoloxxi.com have raised their prices for the V3. Apollo XXi went from EUR 299 to EUR 325, while ebookreaders.nl, who don't even sell the thing before the 2nd quarter of this year, went from EUR 350 to a completely ridiculous EUR 399.

Is this just a consequence of the recent surge in popularity for e-ink readers, or what's going on here? (Both iScriptum and Jinke themselves are still advertising the same prices as before.)

Color me puzzled and a wee bit angry, as I also found out today that I do in fact have the funds to order a V3 this month...
