I think with all the other eReaders out there, there are going to have a hard time at that price, Euros or Dollars.

Keep in mind that it is common practice for companies to keep the US list price in dollars and just change the currency to Euros. Sony has done the same thing for their products. A $299 reader in the U.S. is 299 Euros in Europe. It doesn't seem to make sense, but it is pretty common in the consumer electronics space. I was a little surprised at the price as well until I did the math and realized the price is roughly equivalent to the quoted $399 US list price.
