So why is it Russia/Ukraine only? The GUI is clearly in engish.
It is evident that Ectaco will be providing a US/Canadian version at some
point, but probably don't want to deal in the angst that will result from the
time it takes, to actually have a product available for purchase. (We may
not be the most patient of people here in North America. Or here on MR.)

My main concern is whether they will view the dedicated color ereader as
a viable product in the general market place. Perhaps, once the academic
market accepts the device, as they implement it, they could consider a more
general reader development and marketing. (A "jetBook-Max" perhaps?)
