I bought a 6" Kindle this evening. That is just $189. I think Amazon just dropped the price, I remember I saw that was $2XX few days ago.
Why do I buy that and even not consider to buy a iPad? Firstly, I am not an apple person. Secondly, $189 is a very attractive price, much cheaper than iPad. Besides, all I need is a eBook reader. Kindle can do the job. Moreover, it has an eInk, which is good for my eyes. The normal computer screens, including iPad screen, are so easy to make my eyes tired. Lastly, it got a free 3G connection! I can get books their wireless networks. Moreover, it has a beta web browser, therefore, I will have free wireless internet connection! That is very cool!
