BlankIt is being reported this evening (CET) that Amazon is to reduce the
price of it's Kindle e-book reader to $189 (€153/£128) from the orginal
starting price of $259 (€210/£175) in response to Barnes and Noble reducing
the price of it's Nook Wi-Fi system to $149 (€121/£101). According to Amazon
(admittedly, a biased source), the average download rate for a work of
Verne's from their site is one every 18 hours. Do the forum think that this
price war will help get more of Verne's work into an electronic format (be
it on iPhone, iPad or e-book readers) and if so, should the various sequels
or follow ups published since also be given an electronic version as well?
