DH & I were in BB&B Wednesday night and they had tons of the Literator e-reader (from Sharper Image) for $40! MIL has one, it's powered by Kobo so you can get books from Suffolkwave on it. It's backlit so it would bother me (and I have the nook anyway) but if you're not prone to headaches and you want an e-reader cheap this is perfect.

It was at the one in Lake Grove by the mall.
