All of them have exactly same button layout but slightly different body encapsulation. Some of them even look exactly identical except for the brand name printed on the front of the device. For example, the ViewSonic and Foxit reader sold on Newegg look exactly like Mentor.
This all makes me wonder if one found F/W for an identical unit with different functionalities - would it be possible to 'morph' the Mentor into say...a Foxit, ViewSonic , Cybook work-alike ?
