Yeah, I agree. I got the device for $50. If it breaks after a bit and I have to replace it, it's not like I'll have lost much. And I really do like the Aura.

I wonder if it's refurbished or something. The seller has sold 340 of them and had more in both black and pink. The box is open, but everything seems to be in new shape. I'm tempted to get one for my mother in law who's still on an old unlighted Kindle: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...740867&alt=web
