True and the iPad WiFi costs $500 minimum, and doesn't last as long as a DXG or other E ink type device.

I expect to see a 10," WiFi, E ink touchscreen (infrared) DXG. for $300 or less.
Possibly $350 with free (LIMITED) 3G to bring the books and other Amazon stuff over when out of WiFi range, (plus I think they are providing Wikipedia, but on that I am not sure.) In fact, with the advertising addition, we might see $50 taken off both those numbers.

That would compete with the $500 iPad.

So you have gotten me to commit!

What do you think?
