I see now that the Kindle is available on amazon US for $259. I'm still debating whether I should get one - maybe once it falls below $100 I will. Don't say that will never happen - it happened to Blackberry(s).
I've been buying e-books for years and I thought they were already cheap at about $5 for a full novel. Although I suppose the costs come when you invest in readers, which I never have.
Yes, they seem fairly cheep, and there are so many free ones out there right now.
Charles any links to any freeies woule be welcome.
