I hope so. I thought I saw a glimpse of it in one of the videos but was not sure.

Again, I hope there is an option to switch this pop-up screen off. When I read fantasy book and want to check an unknown word in dictionary, I don't want to see this pop-up variety of ...things.


However, I believe the history is going to repeat itself.
PRS-505 was a perfect reader for its time, then they made 700, 600...and only 3 years later they manage to design a successful model - PRS-650.
They will hone features and h/w on a few new models then come up with an exclusive one.
I guess till then 650 will be my friend.
