I don't understand how this device can possibly cost them more than $50 to manufacture. Sure you still need to take development and R&D costs into account, but c'mon!!! 120 frakkin bucks?????
I was stoked to get this when it comes out. But now, I'll just wait for it to go on sale or be bundled with a massive guitar hero/rock band mega-super bundle that includes everything for a discounted price.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
