They said nothing about eReader which no eink device supports (wiith DRM).

But they took a new Kindle and reviewed it vs and old 500. That is irresponsible. In order to do a proper review, they'd need to use a 505 vs the Kindle. Would a review of the first Cybook vs the gen3 be of any use? I think not. That's basically what we got. A review of an old model no longer in production vs a new model very much in production. It's not a valid comparison.
