Where did you find a price for the JE-200 ? How much is it ?
I had paid $250 shipped for my JE-100 and am very happy with it as a dedicated e-reader.
Going by the
specs of the JE-200 and comparing it with
the specs for the JE-100, the only two 'real' differences that I see are --
1) 128MB in-device storage, increased from 64MB
2) Support for SDHC cards added (JE-100 only accepted SD cards, not SDHC)
Other than this, the processor is still 400MHz and the RAM is still 64MB; so I find it kinda hard to believe that the JE-200 is faster than the JE-100.
Sure, they have updated the JTOS software that sits on top of the core WinCE5.0, and added a few more built in e-reader apps ... but I already do this (and have a much better setup with more reader apps, IMHO) on the JE-100 by directly accessing the WinCE OS.
So if they are really charging a lot more for the JE-200, I would be VERY interested in knowing what other differences are between the two.
UPDATE:
Never mind, found the price at Sale4Online, which is the storefront for JoinTech themselves.

$399 for the JE-200 ... while the JE-100 is still $250. Unless I know more, I would assert anyone paying $150 extra for the JE-200 is simply crazy ... unless they absolutely have to have SDHC support !!
