(Especiually since I was at J&R this Black Friday AM and again saw the $299.00 price!) Too bad ECTACO didn't make it CRYSTAL clear that the *current* hardware will ABSOLUTELY get ePub capability. At that price, it'd sell scads. That price is a bit of a shocker. (Especiually since I was at J&R this Black Friday AM and again saw the $299.00 price!)
