The Kindle isn't in the clearance bin, it's sold out till February. I'm a bit biased I guess. I've had my Kindle for a year now and think it's a great device. It's *so* nice for reading, I love it.
My impression is that not very many kindles have been sold
(~350k??
) for the length of time it has been released. This would seem to suggest a possible parts supply limitation, maybe the screen, a later version of which will apparently be used by the Foxit eSlick, among others.
The main flaw with the kindle is the lack of any useful pdf capability. The Foxit eSlick has the oppposite problem, but the market may well be split between people who want free pdf's and those who want the latest expensive popular releases.
