I think it might be a loss-leader. Pixmania are still showing them at £269.

But I'm sure that we will see prices come down. What we really need is someone else supplying a similar screen. As I undertsand things, all the screens have the eInk part from the same manufacturer.

I'm looking forward to one with a non-glass substrate screen. The current screen are far too fragile.
