The price just keeps raising... First 98000JPY (=964USD), then 1100USD, now 1350-1700USD.
I will wait until September/October to buy some device (the beginning of another academic year), but Sony is making it very easy for me to choose the competition (for my sadness, though). What I really appreciate on DPT-S1, besides all the great features/advantages of e-paper display, is the fast, hight quality stylus input, the screen size and the weight. That's something I doubt onyx or pocketbook will make at a lower price.
