Still seems overpriced, but it seems a major ergonomic improvement over Kindle 1.0, which I tried for a while last fall and ultimately ditched in favour of the 505. Whispernet doesn't really tempt me, but the Amazon ebook pricing is still nice. Based just on the promotional video sample, the automatic text-to-audio feature brings to mind the "dog dancing" analogy. If version 3.0 uses plastic screen technology rather than glass (which I've heard is in the works and will be available to manufactures in the next year or two), I could see transitioning a Kindle 3.0 as my next ebook reader.
