Excellent! I have been trying to decide on what I would replace my Jetbook with. I like the Pocketbook 360 design.. but despite its advantages, I just felt it was too pricey... this now puts it back in contention!

So far nothing's changing in the two accessories levels, we stay with "Standard" (device+cover(clamshell)+USB cord) and Comfort (plus memory card and the charger).
But it may change soon for the PB301 - as far as I know the next lot of them will not be equipped with leather covers, they'll be sold separately... We'll know in couple of weeks

you know some days you really piss me off!! hehehehe...I am running out of reasons to wait to buy a 360...sigh...I suppose I have one left but moving to a desert island would sort of require I bring at least one extra reader so that idea won't work. Any suggestions?

C'mon over to the "dark side," brecklundin.

You know you want to!

I've been waiting to hear the announcement for the next generation 360, but if the 360 product line (with the current form factor) is dying then I'll pick up another one before the stock runs out. To me, there's still no other e-ink reader that even comes close to the 360 for comfort.

Oooh... what are the proposed upgrades? Now I don't know if I should get one now or try to wait.

That's good news, I somehow missed that bit of info.

Pocketbook has a curious way to measure time, so you won't regret getting it for those prices. The upgrades could probably include Pearl and Wifi, since it is expected that the exclusivity agreement for Pearl will end the coming year, and Pocketbook has been very busy acquiring content for its book store. bookland.net, which by the way is starting to look like a serious place and not some ragtag Gutenberg ripoff.

Bookland.net is not live yet as of today, but when it starts (hopefully this week), it'll have about 270.000 paid books and 30,000 free books (Guttenberg).
