To be honest, I felt the same way. It's alot of scratch for a singular function device. But I too am gadget obsessive. Worse case we could eBay it right? Not a chance. This thing is too cool! I've been reading about eInk for over 3 years now and had to get my hands on it. No way I'm going to put out the scratch Illiad wants. I think it's amazing how some folks just don't get it. All those complaints about no backlighting, low contrast, etc.. (not to even start on that crank over at TeleRead, geez, they're NOT going to send you one already, break out your credit card for your 'review' [bracing for the flames]) It's electronic paper! I love the idea of technology emulating a real life artifact.
Now my wife wants it.
Maybe I'll send her your way for that club of yours so she can use yours
