None that have appeared through slatedroid, and they're still hiding important specs, e.g. which system-on-a-chip that they're using... better be at least a cortex-a8 for $300 given that the Archos 70 has a TI OMAP3630 and will go for c. $275ish.

Ended up returning my Augen Gentouch78 after Augen failed to release source, and had some bad backlight bleed from two corners. Bought a white Pandigital Novel(what the Cruz Reader is cloned from), however to my dismay I ended up with another unit with backlight bleed which kind of makes reading in dimly lit/dark areas annoying. (Never noticed it until using it at night the first night that I had it, and now can even see it during the day since I know where to look.)

Cruz Reader doesn't have hw 3D accel either as some early reports indicated and a slatedroid user reported video playback to be as poor as early PDN fw.

Hybrid Cruz/PDN fw is running on the PDNs now as well.

WiFi: you might've been able to get some help at slatedroid with that as the PDN apparently used to have some WiFi problems... there's a Cruz Reader specific sub-forum in the PDN forum over there now.
