I remember in late '09 some posts by guys who had bought a Libre Pro and put the jetBook firmware on it. My recollection is that they were successful, but were then unable to replace the jetBook firmware with the original Aluratek.

Am I wrong about that?

My understanding is that the current jetBook firmware is superior to the Aluratek's. If you can install the jetBook firmware on it, then that buy.com/eBay price is an attractive deal!
