Don't forget that those of us - and there are many - who buy eInk readers outside their official country of distribution are, in effect, buying them without a warranty. Eg Sony UK won't touch my Reader if it goes wrong because it's not a product which is either sold or supported in the UK.
Of course I appreciate that the thread is primarily talking about new machines, but I was just pointing out that entry into the eBook reading world need not necessarily cost a fortune; cheap "obsolete" 2nd-hand hand-held devices can make excellent and very low-cost book readers.
