I do remember when the 1st gen of Kindle came out it was very expensive and had some shortcomings (or so it appeared). 1st gen of anything is always like that I think. I got my fiancee a new DVD player at the end of last month for $24.99 plus tax. When they first came out I wouldn't have been able to afford one. Likewise TV's were expensive back in the 1950's. That's why winning one on a game show was such a big deal back then. Winning a $500.00 TV set was quite a prize back in those days.
