My company, GMCE Group, is thinking of selling a new 5 inch eBook. It will be E-ink and E-paper and will get about 8,000 pages on a single charge. The resolution will be 800 by 600 pixels, 170 dpi. It will have stereo music and headphone and we know we need an SD-card slot to expand 128MB embedded NAND flash. It has all the major features (Jump to Page, Progress Bar, Font Increasing, Bookmark, Zoom, Slideshow, Auto Shut-Off) and would be ported with MobiPocket.

We would introduce at about $295. That's not a bad price compared to Kindle; but I am looking for feedback!! What are your thoughts regarding price?
It has not been released yet, but Astak is estimating $200 for a similar device, see Astak Mentor eBook readers with WiFi and Touchscreen options.
