Only in the world of tech do people expect products should get better *and* cheaper over time. It's always been an anomaly and there's no law of nature that says it should continue.

And it's fine to want an ereader (or any product) at an arbitrarily low price, but someone has to figure out how to make it and sell it at that price and stay in business.
