It isn't on the website and not all stores seem to have dropped the price, but a number of people are reporting they have picked them up.

Having a bookshelf in my pocket seems worthwhile. Just like having a jukebox in my pocket has been valuable. There are lots of "filler" times - between classes, waiting for dinner etc - in which whipping out an ereader and picking up exactly where I left off sounds great. I'd totally pay $10 for an old book. Anyway, I'm excited about ereaders. So I love the ereader concept. Having a bookshelf in my pocket seems worthwhile.

But there are some options. Thomas Nelson has started putting in a copy of the audio and ebook with some of their hardbacks. I have purchased the hard back in that case with the intention of passing it on once I read the ebook. Passing books to friends is the only think I don't like about ebooks.

I want to be able to pass my books along to others whom I want to invest in. I won't be getting an ereader anytime soon. I want to be able to pass my books along to others whom I want to invest in.
