Still out of stock at Astak. Still no indication at the site that these will ever be available again. (White ones cost $30 more than any other color?)
I still want one, but I've stopped pointing other people at them. I have three friends who've gotten Kindles or Sonys in the last few weeks. (One is thrilled with her Sony Touch; she wouldn't have wanted an EZReader 'cos she loves the touchscreen. But the others would've seriously considered it for the superior filetype support.) Most of my friends read lots of fanfic--they care less about bookstore support than how well it deals with user-loaded content.
And they're buying whatever's available when they've decided "I'm going to get an ebook reader now."
