I'm wondering if what happened with the netbooks will also happen with e-readers. I'm glad I waited and didn't get stuck with a tiny 7 inch monitor with 4GB HD Eee PC and managed to get the 10 inch 80GB Eee 1000H for basically the same price. And that was literally the difference of just a few months.

Buy one now. I ordered my 505 from the USA and it was delivered to Japan. If you have an ipodtouch... Those are not cheap, so I imagine you can afford to buy an ereader. Depends on your priorities.....I guess
