Yep. Besides, a few other companies are planning readers this size in the fall since that's when these new, larger screens are supposed to be available. It wouldn't make much sense for Amazon to lose a new market to these other companies by waiting because a few of their existing customers feel it's too soon. Technology moves on quickly. Within 6 months of buying my last laptop, the same level of hardware was a lot cheaper and a new generation of processors and video cards was out. I didn't feel insulted or taken advantage of. It's just the way of the industry. I could have waited 6 months and then in another 6 months the same thing would've happened again. There's always something newer, shinier, faster and better on the horizon.
