Er, third paragraph in: "It featured a 6 inch e-ink touchscreen display and a 5 inch Android . . . ." That should be 6 and 7 inches.

I wouldn't say the App store was a "tremendous disappointment". I found it very helpful -- all the apps were free (some trial versions) and they all worked on the eDGe, which is not true for other app stores. I'm sure people were disappointed that it wasn't the equivalent of the Google Market, but how could it be?? Would have been nice if Google had let enTourage into their Market . . .

Was the original cost "$700-$450?" enTourage was selling the EE for $599 when I was deciding to buy, and the PE might have been $450, but I'm not sure.

Interesting article! I will reread it later. Thanks for sharing!
