I see e-ink readers becoming cheap if they are loss-leaders for an ebook company. For example, I can see Amazon selling a $100 E-Reader. It will be locked down, and you can only read content purchased from Amazon. It's not very different than the wireless phone companies.

As for the Chinese car... see what happens when you have to bring it up to American safety specifications. That adds quite a bit to the cost.
