What's the downside of a Libre Pro versus a Jetbook?

EDIT: I just noticed that there is a very similar thread already on the forum comparing the firmware of the libre pro with that of the jetbook. Maybe we can use this one to shed some more light on the situation? If not, sorry for wasting a thread

I know that there have been other threads asking which one you should buy (JB, JBL or Libre Pro or I guess JB Mini, now), but I want to know which device has the best firmware (the jetbook firmware is different than the JBL, right?).

Also, is there any advantage to buying a Jetbook over a Libre Pro? I haven't found a cheap original Jetbook (I HAVE found the JBL for $99 at Newegg) but I've been seeing a lot of Libre Pros on ebay and I think I could get one for around $100, maybe less, with shipping if I'm crafty. Is there any downside to owning a Libre Pro versus a Jetbook or Jetbook Lite?

And yes, I do know about the AA batteries in the JBL. That's not too important to me, since I'm often very close to an outlet when I read (I read the most at my night job at a hotel).

Hopefully this didn't come out as too confusing. It's late, and I'm starting to fall asleep at the keyboard.
