the $99 reader.

I dream of one, but who do you think will make it? I don't see Sony doing it. but they did surprise me with the price of their 5" at 199. I expected them to put it for 250.

the third party readers seem to be priced way above the competition. and amazon is still liking its expensive kindle.

hmm its hard to see into the future. christmas '10 might be the time we see a $99 reader I expect. but really. its so close I'm not really sure.

the average cost of a reader has only dropped by about 25% in the last few years. so it would be hard. I would Not be surprised if it takes another 2 years for a reader to drop below the $99 mark.

Besides old devices. I expect the Jetbook to fall below 99 bucks soon(within 9 months). but I'm talking about new devices being sold for less than 100. not price drops.
