The one thing I wish for in the Cybook is to be able to read when the battery is re-charging.
& also delphidb96, I did state it was a very popular book. As far as I know, I'm the only person who didn't like it. Of course I also dislike Ray Bradbury's work even though I love SciFi and he is very popular. When I was in college, we had a SciFi book club. With only one exception, all English and Literature majors in the club loved his work and all engineers hated it.
