I don't care about the lack of wi-fi and at $189 it does look like a good deal.

I'd like to know more about the processor speed(is an Arm 9 core good? Fast?) and the software functionality before I think about buying one though. As most of us know, poor reader software functionality can really kill an ereader.

Hopefully Kogan offers some sort of money back guarantee so you can have a play with it and if you don't like it can send it back.

Cheers,
PKFFW
