After much review and thought, I have joined the JetBook team. Just got a new JBL and I am loving it. Upgraded the firmware without much problem. Got my ebooks (most were from B&N) over to it and I'm reading with pleasure. Was a difficult decision for me because of all the new technology coming out at very attractive pricing but I ended up with the JBL because of the form factor, the ability to use about every format out there, I didn't need all of the additional features like wi-fi or 3g or MP3 or web browsing, etc. Just needed a dependable e-reader that I could get in my coat pocket. The comments on this forum convinced me the JBL was what I needed. Because of some left over credits from a vendor, I ended up getting it for $85 shipped. Can't beat that. Thanks go out to all of you for helping me make the decision. I expect this will serve me well for some time and I'll be checking in with you folks on a regular basis. Special thanks to Ken and GA Russell. You folks added a lot of insight to my decision.
