Right, and once Amazon lowers the price on the DX, it will have to lower the price on the Kindle, so the iPad's entry will force lower prices across the board for e-readers, and will almost certainly drive some of the many e-reader manufacturers out of the market. There just isn't enough room/pricing power for 20 different e-reader manufacturers in a market where the iPad is available for $500.
