Actually the iPhone 4S costs 203 USD to build (might be even less today)

so you might argue that the iPhone 4S is cheap and heavily overpriced.

The price of an eink display is quite high (I broke one in the past and had to replace it) so this component is the expensive hardware part.

Anyway, I don't mind about this hardware fanboy war. I almost like all eink devices and I own several of them (Kindle 4, Kindle DX, Irex 1000S, Sony Reader).
