If you think an iPod Touch is not overpriced, then you just don't get it. Apple's iPod may look nice, but overall, it's not as good as it could be. And Apple charges a lot because they get away with it. People pay the price without realizing how overpriced it is.

Most of the Kindle's cost is the screen. Granted it is expensive now. But I do expect prices to drop someday.
