With a color Palm going for $99 retail, it strikes me as... optimistic... to expect to sell these for $300-$500 each. They're big and clunky and won't fit in your pocket. The ebooks you buy for it aren't notably cheaper than buying regular books from Amazon.com, so there seems to be no advantage for most people. Plus, men are the biggest gadget heads, but they also do the least reading (especially fiction) which is a big problem.
