I know it's been discussed before, but I wonder how much the e-ink screens will go down in price one more manufacturing facilities are in place and the marketing and development of the product become more streamlined. I imagine that a lot of the price difference with cheaper screen would be eaten up by Sony et all, but if newer model Readers were $200 instead of $300, that would be making up a huge gap in terms of what a lot of people are willing to pay for such a device (although I've seen at least one person say they wouldn't pay over 50!).
