I think that the Voyage will actually do really well, especially in the upgrade market where people want to get themselves a new kindle, but given the higher price I would bet that amazon are not planning or expecting it to sell as well as the current models did and indeed the price could serve to help drive sales of the pw and basic models along with their cheaper tablets too.
