That had me worried (I don't like MS at all), but from what little I know of the format it would not require it.

The good news, is simply that Australia will have some device available. even my wife who is a determined Luddite and an opposer to my electronic purchases is interested in getting this device, almost regardless of what it is - she likes the idea of eink that much (which surprised me, but she hates screen reading which she has to do at work).

If it turns out to be Cybook it would be great, I think Iliad might be too much price-wise for this sort of thing (fingers crossed, it would be a good move, especially if the price came down with a bulk deal).

Whatever it is it will have to come out well under $aus400, under $300 would be very good.

It is very good news.
