So, its only $25 less, and it has ads? pass.
Pretty sure someone will hack the firmware to remove the ads anyway?
Saving 25 bucks to look at ads for the life of the product? really?
[quote]The retail giant has started taking orders in the US for the device, which costs $114 (£69) - $25 (£15) less than the current entry level model.[/quote] I got a MP4 player, with 720p TV-Out, that also has a pretty good touch screen, that plays music and reads ebooks at the same time, that has 4GB storage and supports an additional 32GB, for $60. Why whould I pay $40 extra for viewing ads?
I'd much rather pay £15 more for no ads if I was spending £60+ on an ebook reader.
Buy it, hack it, no ads.
