We have a saying in Spanish: "if you want to win, sit and wait for your enemy's corpse to be paraded". Amazon did exactly that with their Kindle DX. Existing (Irex) and non-existing (Skiff, Que) competitors have been shown for months, demoed in trade shows and looked upon with a glimmer of hope... but at the end, people got the DX because it was a click away from them. I hope Pocketbook launches their 901 already. I don't care if it's got a glass screen anymore: I want something for the prospective PDF reading I'm going to have to do at university.
