Yep. It's happening both in the dedicated ereader market, and in the tablet market.

Everyone and their dog is bringing out a repackaged 6" eink screen, or a 7" crap LCD screen.

But they are all garbage.

With the iPad, Apple didn't invent the tablet, they just made the first good one. Similarly to what they did with the iPhone.

I've been waiting for something better to come along, but all I see is a flood of sub-8" garbage clones. Race to the bottom, which just ensures that in comparison, the iPad looks like the only one to have.

Very disappointing
