I just bought a Pandigital Novel Personal 6" eInk reader at my local Big Lots store for TWENTY DOLLARS. Ok, it was remanufactured, and OK, it has a SiPix electrophoretic screen instead of the name brand, but...

A six-inch touchscreen reader with WiFi, touchscreen, 2 Gb internal memory, reads EPUB, PDF, TXT, (I find out later it also reads RTF and HTML, reads JPG, PNG, BMP pictures, plays music from a variety of music files, has an accelerometer
shift from Portrait to Landscape when you rotate the device, a primitive web browser, takes a micro-SD card up 16 Gb, a clock, a calendar...

How could you NOT buy that for Twenty Bucks?

It had a $69.99 sticker on it, but there was a hand-lettered show card that said $19.95. It could simply be an isolated sale, but you might want to check your local Big Lots store to see.
