I paid over $300 for my first ebook reader, the Sony PRS-505, and never regretted a penny of it. If a particular ebook reader offers me features that I find useful that other ebook readers don't offer, I will pay a premium to get the ebook reader that I want. I'm not a spendy person in general (my husband calls me cheap all the time), but I don't have a problem spending a premium on things that I use on a daily basis. I use my ebook reader every day, often for hours at a time, so it really doesn't bother me to pay a bit more for such an often used item.
