hello jack,
thanks for the comparison. i suspect i would have a similar experience, although as e-ink is very tempting to me it might outweigh the rest. if i buy one before ETI starts to market their new device, i will get a Cybook Gen3, they have certain features which i find very interesting (dictionary lookup, better format support, etc.). i would have to find out whether it can be completely shut down to save battery, or if it only goes to "sleep mode" like the sony ; that seems like a big disadvantage.

anyway, we'll all just have to keep looking out for any news from ETI...
