I was thinking the same but at the moment with the pre-order offer the price difference
is significant.
I have doubts if they will be able to sell many units at full price though, even though their device is quite exciting and their communication efforts reassuring. I'm willing to believe that they will carry on working on and improving the reader. On the other hand they are a start-up so anything may happen. Then with Sony and their strange (=off-putting) marketing strategy you never know, Sony may quietly drop support at any time.
I've been considering getting reMarkable for a long time. The only
really annoying thing is the very limited storage (8GB when you can buy a 16GB card for $10) and no SD card slot...
