I think people were right in that the lower end of the market will fluctuate price-wise, however, you reach a market point where people are willing to pay for certain things like a large screen.
LOL. As I mentioned in another thread, $350 for the 900 is pure comedy when the 600 is $200. Find one person on this forum who would buy the 900 for $350. I guarantee that Sony will either drop the price of the 900 and it's replacement in the fall, or discontinue the 7" reader.

At $350 for a 7" reader, the 900 is stuck in a no-man's land between sub $200 6" readers and bigger/slightly more expensive readers that are much better for PDFs. A $350 Sony 900 makes even less sense to me than a $489 Kindle DX.
