Looking at the Netronix specs of their reader (DS-EB-100) you see the following differences:
Gen 3: SamsungŪ S3C2410 ARM920T 200MHz
Netronix: Samsung S3C2440 AM9 400MHz
Gen3 Size: 188 x 118 x 8.5 mm, weight: 174g
Netronix: 198mm(H)x128mm(W)x9mm(D), weight: 210g
Gen3: 166 dpi
Netronix: 170dpi
Gen3: SD Card up to 2GB
Netronix: SD Card (expandable to 4GB (SDHC ?))
Larger memory in the Netronix.
Of course I have no hint the netronix device is in fact the CyBook Gen3.1 but it sounds like a more powerful device, 20% heavyier and 20% larger.
Should the Netronix be in fact the CyBook Gen3.1 I have to say I am a little disappointed should I receive the 'old' version (which will be the case).

Dude! I've GOT an EB-100 and a Cybook Gen3. They're sitting right in front of me. There's not 10mm difference in width
or height - although there may well be as much as 1/2mm difference in thickness. Weight? They weight almost exactly the same according to my (analog - spring type) scale. I've no doubt the EB-2xx series will be different, but except for the white (ivory) case, I can't tell the difference in the exterior of the two. The buttons are the same size and place, the SD slot and the USB and headphone plugs are in the same position - it's the same damn machine on the outside. Inside? Well I haven't cracked either open to see.

P.S. I
may have an "old stock" device, but it's what they shipped me as of two weeks ago.
