There is no market for organizer/office ereaders.
There is no market for ereaders with exciting colors. Although there is a niche market for skins.
There is little to no market for SD card expansion, becaus most people don't give a darn. There is a good reason for that.

Your dislike of Jeff Bezos is not a prediction about the ereaders?
Please elaborate...
