Is this reflective of the changes in the market place ie: pricing of other readers and features, or has the pearl screen taken the lead in terms of quality over the LCD?
You may be reading a lot into what Jack said. I doubt that his replacement
recommendations would have been based on the screen primarily. The
jetBooks are getting older now and appear to be loosing emphasis if not
support at the manufacturer. The newer tech and temptation of a
multipurpose device, will be part of what you may be seeing on the web.
