Absent clearer details, for the IQ the *expectations* of many of us have been of, essentially, a color 301, with an (optional) Android environment on the side. (Unfair, probably, but the "marketing" *has* always emphasized the Pocketbook reader side, not the "open Android webpad" side of the IQ.)
Without the Pocketbook environment, the IQ becomes... I dunno... A Velocity Micro Cruz?
(With a much better warranty, of course.)
Well, then again, I have Kindle and Nook installed on this little darling and that works really swell, thank you very much.
