In the past there was speculation that the PL machine might compete against the Kindle price, but much has changed since then at the Amazon end, if nothing else. As for the "being for business" stuff, yes, that could be a hint of a high price. But then again, Plastic Logic would like to penetrate the newspaper-reader market. So in the end, it's really tough to know what the devil the company now has in mind in the pricing area. Thanks, David Hi, Rich.

But then again, Plastic Logic would like to penetrate the newspaper-reader market.

So in the end, it’s really tough to know what the devil the company now has in mind in the pricing area.

I'm concerned because Plastic Logic touts the device as being for businesses and whn companies do that, it means a higher price than consumers would be willing to pay. Any idea on pricing?
