Merci, Laurent. I'll check out the videos. Lighting isn't a huge deal for me. I'm more interested in it as a note-taking device than a reader, so the screen is less of a concern. Although I know some people do have the device already, it has yet to be released in North America and I have yet to see if it will be at the price point that has been speculated. I'm in no rush to get one, simply curious at this point.

And good luck with your decision in purchasing an edge. Do you have a store near you where you can see one in person? It's such a unique device that many people either love or hate it, and I can appreciate that it's really difficult to know ahead of time into which group you'll fall.

We honestly don't know whether or not to expect a new hardware device or software upgrade or some other announcement altogether soon, so no one can really tell you that it is or isn't a good time to buy. But what we do know is that if you buy now, you'll get the machine we all have, with a known set of features and limitations. I think you'll just have to decide whether you can live with that.
