Wait until the Fire becomes available worldwide. In today's economy, hype notwithstanding, $200 for a device to surf the web and keep ones mind occupied with silly games, is all most people will pay for.

LOL

You notice that Amazon still hasn't released actual numbers.

Also, earlier from Nashton:

Even RIM scored big with its heavy discounts on Playbooks. Anything more than $300 is a rip off for a mass produced device such as the iPad

It seems that that $300 has been lowered to $200. I'm assuming that the number is just whatever is the lowest available price for any tablet-like device currently available. :)
