I posted one here (Patriots Club) and had to comment on it, but didn't want to clutter the other thread...

I think it is a bit demoralizing to look for a book (which takes some effort and time anyway), only to come up with a price that's out of line, or missing altogether. I love the way Sony is showing they care about getting prices right, but I sure hope they are looking at the big picture also. They obviously can't react to everything we notice, and even if they did it's only a sample. Many other frustrated customers will still find high prices, but they may never be heard from again after the $50 runs out. Surely eReader and MobiPocket have figured something out. Let's hope it's just the typical new rollout bumps in the road!

Hmmm... I take it back. Maybe this is a tougher problem than I thought. It looks like nobody got this one right. MobiPocket, eReader and Fictionwise all have it at similar price levels. Yikes! Surely the publisher doesn't intend to price it so out of line with mass paperback.
