Where are you looking? On the same site you were featuring the reader from?<br /><br />"Why is it a hundred dollars more?"<br /><br />I dunno, Darlin'! I'll have to look at it more, later. I doubt the staff @ the store would be able to tell me much, yet.

I have to admit, I hadn't looked much at the reader 'cuz the woman in the store got me all "worked up" over the tablet!

And...it seems a <i>slighest</i> change in its size as well. I guess I was waiting for the Cadillac and didn't know it!
