My wife is bad about getting books back on time so i thought is was a great idea.. I could put it on our asus eee but i'm trying to get something small and great on batts..

Andy,

But you really *should* keep the Cybook. Bookeen *IS* working on fixing the problem with time-limited ebooks and I believe this is coming out in the next fix. (which should be released soon) Then, she'll be able to download library ebooks to her heart's content. And while she's waiting, she can always download a few dozen of the classics - not to forget all the Free Library ebooks available from Baen Books (www.baen.com). Baen has well over 100 titles available for free! Granted, they're all SF and Fantasy, but I'm sure she can find one or two titles she'll enjoy.

In my opinion, to return the Cybook now just doesn't make sense as the time-limit issue will be fixed soon. If it appeared Bookeen wouldn't fix it any sooner than four or five months from now, *THEN* I'd say switch to another battery-hogging eee pc.
