Yeah, that's exactly what it is. It's a 10" ipod touch.

It'll still be very rough to get a eReader device sold for more than this one is priced at for non hardcore readers which is a big portion of the market.

Most people in the eInk market are already getting eInk because they don't want to use an LCD notebook/tablet for reading. The iPad is an LCD notebook/tablet. Non hardcore readers will be a big portion of the iPad market, but hardcore readers pretty much IS the eReader market.
What amused me were all the people who were claiming it was the best device ever. They didn't even know anything about it at the time (neither what it did or what it was), they just knew that it was the best device ever. Now that they know what it does, they think it'll kill every other device that does anything even remotely similar. Gotta love Apple marketing.
