Hmm it shows it as "This product is no longer available for purchase." However, you can still "Add to Wishlist." =)

From reading all the negative reviews on the site, it seems pretty unanimous that the problem was with the lack of contrast and glare/reflection. Hopefully, Sony is able to maintain the functions of the 700 (perhaps even add more or improve current ones) and improve the screen. It probably would become a hot seller if Sony dealt with those issues.

I personally would like to see wi-fi added, but of course with the ability to turn it off to conserve battery power. But I like being able to access books off my computer without having to physically plug it in.
