Waiting those 2-4 months could save as much as 50% on the cost of a reader that brings a more to the table. And for sure better devices if one waits a just tad longer.

You even say yourself that there's something better on the horizon! Right now, we've only the "traditional" e-ink devices, but better screens are on the horizon (those 3Qi screens). Screens are getting larger, response times are getting better (at least, that's what I understood about that Epson controller), more gray-scales, eventually maybe even colour.
It's only a starting technology and that usually takes some time to get up. But once it's going into the mainstream I think the development will start picking up too.
