I received the extra battery on Jan 7: it was mailed Dec 31. That was only about a day after I emailed them about problems with my SD card. They responded within a couple of hours, and mailed out the extra battery (that was not available at the time my order - 73XX was shipped) and a new SD card within a day or two.
My Cybook is working very well. I especially like using RSS feeds, which I update every day to get my daily fix of newspapers and magazine feeds. I did experience the loss of place in books when I first was using the Cybook, but since I've got more used to how it works, and don't make many mistakes with the menu anymore, these problems have gone away. Regarding the "cheap construction", I feel having the reader inside the leather case takes away any feeling of flimsiness and gives it the quality feel of an old leather bound book.
Personally, I feel that Bookeen got it just right. I wanted an electronic replacement for paper books, not a PDA that could read books, access the internet, and do everything else including make your espresso in the morning. I just wanted to read a book and enjoy it the same as the old fashioned way.
I love my Cybook
