When 6" devices were $299, a price tag of $399 for a bigger screen didn't seem so horrible, but now it looks less and less compelling, at least for me.
And how about the PRS-600 and PRS-300? Well, I wouldn't expect a price drop in devices so recently launched, but who knows. Maybe Sony is feeling the heat...

This is the same company which refused to drop PS3 prices even when the Xbox360 and Wii were eating their lunch, and only did so after a hardware refresh... so I doubt we'll see any eReader price drops, at least not until the next generation shows up and they need to clear inventory.
