They generally release interim builds on a limited basis to customers who report issues with their devices. I don't really perceive this as "holding back" on their existing customers. When I learned about the build, I contacted them and Bookeen sent me a link where I could download it. I am encouraged to see a new build simply because it tells me that Bookeen is, in fact, working on improving the software.
But this build was released to the general public since it was installed on all new Cybooks. But people that had reported the bug and having the problem and contributed to the solution was not told that an update existed.
