If I can find one dirt cheap, I'll bite. My kindle touch does just fine though.
Better than reading them on my 4.3" phone screen.

This. Outdoor readability, and the way e-ink convincingly duplicates ink on paper, were big draws. If I wanted to read on a backlit screen, I have plenty of devices that already do that. That's why I don't get buying a Kindle Fire over a regular Kindle. But hey, there's obviously a market for it somewhere, I'm just clearly not it.

That being said, for strictly ebook reading I prefer my old b/w Kindle, I hate reading on LCDs for long periods of time. I'm not really the tablet's target audience, i'd rather have a stripped down laptop or netbook than a tablet.
Hey, so bullshit on this.
Looks like a few stores where chisel and slate outsell tablets were getting rid of them really cheap, but the rest of the developed world is waiting til after mother's day.
Maybe.
Boo on this.
