I knew it! Note the shrewd choice of words from Irex's FAQ:
Quote:
Is the E-reader restricted to feeding by iDS only?
No, The E-reader is an open system that also works with your laptop/PC (wireless/wired). The E-reader is also fit for reading from a USB stick, SD cards and CF2.

Note specifically that the question asks if the
E-reader is restricted, not the WiFi connection. By shifting the emphasis to the product has a whole, it becomes possible to insinuate addtional openness through other inputs like USB, SD and CF. What we really wanted to know, and what the question and answer adroitly avoid addressing, is whether or not the wireless functionality will only connect to an Irex proxy.
Now we know.
