I'm thinking more in terms of just how much I use my Kindle do even if I only had this new one a year, it still only works out at a few quid a week which is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
As far as the pricing, one thing that this one will have in common with all previous models is that they will have a pretty good idea of just how many of them they will be able to sell and will have priced them accordingly.
