eReader market dividing into high end and cheap and cheerful

eReader market dividing into high end and cheap and cheerful:
"As many commentators have been saying for some time, as the idea of eReaders becomes more established, we are now seeing that both ends of the market are growing. At the top end we have sophisticated devices such as the Entourage and Kindle 3, and at the other end there are now an increasing number of cheap, almost throw-away eReaders coming onto the market. Prices for some of these low end models have gone down to less that 80 USD a piece, and will get even cheaper in time."

I'd rather have three $80 readers than one $240 reader. Especially if you could link the three together: open link on second reader; dictionary lookup appears on third reader; ersatz 2-page view; etc.
