50 Nuyen for the basic tablet, can be hooked up to a mini printer if you
want, two sizes available, 7 x 10 inches and 5 x 6.5 inches. Adjustable
colours for screen and font type, as well as size.
10-15 Nuyen for a new release novel on chip, 5-10 for an older release. I
realize thats much lower than a new book costs now, but the cost of mass
producing them is so much cheaper than a normal book today.

Maybe a bit more for the tablet, considering its re-useable..
