Hello everybody! I've been on the forums for a while now (since Sony's PRS-500 announcement). I really wished to get an e-ink reader for a present and I got it from my girlfriend. I got the black cover.
It's fantastic. The screen is HUGE and the contrast is great and readable! I love it! The navigation is very easy. It has synced with mobireader without any problems. Booting is really quick! Moving the file is so easy as cybook acts as an USB disk.
I already put several fonts on it and had to delete the cache file manualy.
The "eastern-europe" characters work when a html file is processed through mobipocket creator as UTF-8.

My only complaint is about line spacing and margins in mobi files. I get far better results in custom PDF's at feedbooks.com.
And I have to look into why a custom made dictionary created in mobipocket creator is not working on cybook as it works fine in mobireader.
I didn't yet used SD cards or headphones.
