true. but think about the ptential buyers:
1. nerds
2. technocrats
3. students
4. John Does
1: nerds will buy a good device now, and in 3 months and again in 9 months and so on. color makes them hot, but they can't wait and go buying the best device every few months
2: some techs will wait for color, if they don't need a reader now. but many will only wait for better contrast 6" or 9,7" because they don't need color anyway
3: some students need 9,7", of course all are hungry for color. why not. but only students who don't need a reader will wait. all the engineer will buy a 9,7" as they can, the don't need color.
4. John Does will buy what commercials and magazines are talking about, e.g. the Sony 505. They just don't know/care about color yet. The Does will be the main market, so who cares about the others who are waiting for color?
I'm tired of waiting, so I'll get a "cheap" 9,7" or a netvertible for the time beeing
