The more you Kno

Well, it seems that we have a price on the Kno tablet now. $599 for the single screen and $899 for the clam shell dual screen. As I tweeted before, don’t think of this as sticker shock… yet. That price is the cost of about three textbooks, and if there is any chance that the publishers are going to offer discounted rates for the Kno version of their material, a student will make up the cost for the hardware many times over a typical undergraduate degree. This could really be big. But then again, Apple could do the same with iBooks and then students would have a choice and maybe finally catch a break.
