I expect the reader to be released end of this month.
I have seen it on the book fair in frankfurt with software 0.91 and it looked really good. Will be good competition for the sony and probably no match for all the others out there.
I will definately get one and if bookeen agrees, i will also sell them to all of germany
Cant wait to get one for myself. It will then probably be used for casual reading, while the iLiad will be my professional reading device.
And as far as i heard, PDf will be working with the shipped firmware.
