For those that might be interested, just a heads-up:

http://www.e-readers.co.uk/ is listed on the mobileread wiki and elsewhere as resellers of the Hanlin V3. While they probably do sell the Hanlin V3, they also sell the LBook V3 ... as a Hanlin. Bought mine through amazon.co.uk where it is clearly listed as Hanlin and didn't take much notice till later on (the LBook name showing on the device should have put me on to this but I was too busy loving the device).

Seeing as the hardware is the same and you can switch between firmwares as you please this doesn't matter much. I would just prefer a reseller to clearly state which product is being sold instead of advertising one thing and then shipping an almost - but not quite - identical thing.

Regards
