Well actually there *IS* some marktet for people who want a scribbling device. People who want to use the device for different tasks than reading for leisure. People who like to have an electronic notetaking device. People who want to scribble on their texts like engineer and scientists do. People that even want to pay more than for a sony reader. And I say the market is quite considerable enough to sustain a medium sized company. It would be a shame to let this market go away for nothing... However IMHO WACOM just does not really cut it. Now aside from the notrious gap the screen substrate seems a second big problem with it.
