Don't want to come off too strong, as this device would have been awesome just a few years ago...but with how common smartphones are becoming, the market for people (without smartphones) willing to spend $99 on an electronic wikipedia device seems like it would be quite small.

If you had wikipedia in your pocket for only $99, you would have known that sharper image closed its retail stores: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sharper_Image#Retail_stores
