good to know, many thanks - well, I have got a few more weeks to mull it over

Like the kindle the color contrast can help the screen appear more clearer.
i've seen it pictured both ways but don't know the plan.

For what it's worth, onyx-boox.com is not selling the types that BeBook has a "monopoly" on in certain countries (the Boox 60 = Neo and Boox X60S = Club). Perhaps we can conclude from this that BeBook won't sell the M90.

But if onyx-boox.com can deliver in the same countries as BeBook, that would not be a problem, would it?

That won't be a problem. BeBook doesn't have the exclusive rights for the M90.

This is the model with touch screen, right?
When do you expect it to be available and any price indications?

The M91S is without WiFi and without Touchscreen. The price will be a little bit lower than the M90 and also available in May.

Ah thanks, my bad. I thought there was a model with a touch screen (resistive, not Wacom), but I must have been mistaken.

Without touch would the UI be different for the M91S as compared to the M90?
Is it possible to post some videos of the (near-)final devices?

The UI will be the same but the handwriting functions won't be there. (You can navigate with the touch key)

Unfortunately there is no video of the M91S at the moment. Here's a video of the M90.

I wonder how much faster does the better processor make M91S compared to M90. Deciding between the two devices will be difficult for me if the difference is significant. Ultimately, I would probably sacrifice touchscreen (I don't care about connectivity at all) for better speed in handling pdfs.

We've added the M91S to the onyx boox shop for a price of € 329,00.

We got the information from Onyx International that we have the M90 (without 3G) and the M901 (with 3G). The price of the M90 is € 379,00 and the M901 € 419,00.

So:
€ 329,00 Onyx Boox M91S (No touchscreen, no WiFi)
€ 379,00 Onyx Boox M90 (With touchscreen and WiFi)
€ 419,00 Onyx Boox M901 (With touchscreen, WiFi and 3G)

Is it the release date finally 15 May? Or are you expecting to ship it before?

The m901 sounds really nice to replace my dr1000s

The release date of the M91S and M90 will be on or before May 15. The M901 will be released later.
