I came across the real thing in my local Hugendubel-bookshop yesterday. It doesn't really look any worse than a Kindle. The firmware was quite responsive and you can expand the memory with a SD card.
Additionally, you can use it for free with any Telekom hotspot. As free hotspots are a scarcity in Germany - we may thank the content industry for that - this service is a significant bonus. Telekom covers high speed trains, airports, train stations, fast food restaurants and many other places with its hotspots.
