It doesn’t sound like this device is proprietary like so many of the others, where you’re stuck buying all of your e-books from a single source, like it or not. There needs to be serious competition in the marketplace, not only for the readers, but for the content as well.

I don’t think it’s too much longer before we start seeing straight readers like this at the below $100 price point.

Seriously, though, $125 is getting a lot closer to “Rob is interested” territory, especially with the SD card.
