Heh.

I've got nothing much beyond what fjtorres and capidamonte have said. Awesome points about e-readers & their development.

Truthfully, I thought Pocketbook "got it" with the PB302 and the PB360; ergonomic readers that could easily be used in either hand (comfortably). But, with the PB302 going away, all that's left is the PB360 - and who knows what Pocketbook will do to "improve" it.

I'm glad I have a PB360. As fjtorres said, "the 360 design embodies an ergonomic philosophy of compact one-handed use that few other products offer..."

But I know that eventually, I am going to have to replace my PB360 (a long time from now, thank you very much & knock on wood). If Pocketbook global does not have a PB360 available (with page turning buttons on one portrait side of the device plus an accelerometer) OR a device with page forward/back buttons on both portrait sides - then I'll not buy another Pocketbook.

At this rate, I'm just hoping that if (when?) I have to get a new e-reader, there will still be something available with page forward/back buttons on both sides.

Bah. Now I'm just grumpy about all this...
