I almost buy this every time this happens. Then I think, 64GB storage isn't enough and $549 is too much for something I don't really need. Maybe one day.

I love mine as an e-reader (couldn’t bring myself to buy a Kindle regardless of the rave e-ink reviews)
the problem with it being an e-reader is there are just too many other distractions on it..

Add me in here. It’s still about $100 too expensive for what it is. They could make a 128gb base model for $400 and when it goes on sale for $50-100 off, thats when I’d buy. Maybe when gen7 comes out in 2024 I’ll be ready to give up my 64gb gen5 I got for $200 on a sale.

the 64GB version in the UK is more than the 256GB US $549 version so you are lucky. At the moment the Apple price is £569 ($690) and Amazon is £519 ($630) for 64GB
