Yep. I think we've had it on pretty good authority that the screens won't be available in volume until spring 2009. I'm not holding my breath. Besides, I like having a smaller reader for novels. I want a larger one, too, for tech books, specs and such but I love having one the size of a paperback that I can easily carry around in my handbag for recreational reading.
Edit:
Oh and it looks like Amazon has now
officially said no knew Kindles at all this year, big or small.
