Phenominal price! Let's hope it actually sticks there, what a deal! Of course many of these devices tend to get absorbed into the economy and you never see them due to their scarcity; case in point, you cannot find a Librie anymore and not many people know what they are/were. That's the first thing I went looking for last year before the Reader came out, I even went to the tech-mecca of Akihabara and nobody had a clue as to what I was talking about (even showed them the Sony website). When I did find someone who had a clue, they said I'd probably need to go to Osaka to find one; which wasn't worth the trip.

Here's to hoping they deliver on their promises, I'll be first in line for one of those sweet A5's (grab an A4 if I have to)! Could do without all that jazz in it, as long as it can display PDF's properly or have a good convertor. With that 1600mAH battery, it's sure to have a decent life.
