A look at Kindle's current bestseller list shows us that 23 of the top 100 are $0.99 and the average price is $3.06. Of course, this doesn't include the free titles.
Has anyone seen the remainder table at B&N recently? These prices may not be that far off those for pBooks.

And they are in line with used book prices, especially older books.
