The eReader war began in earnest this year, but it heated up just as summer did.

Barnes and Noble launched an early offensive, cutting prices on the Nook and causing big players such as Amazon and Sony to follow suit. In late July Amazon launched its updated Kindle, selling out within days. From June to August, lower cost readers have gone from approximately US $250 to $150.
