Hi Dicky,
I have both the Iliad and the CyBook. The CyBook I bought direct from Bookeen, the service and delivery was prompt and excellent. I have read heaps of complaints about them but my experience was excellent. The product was delivered from France to Australia within a week via trackable courier.
The Iliad I bought from Dymocks at twice the price of the Cybook. Their service was good, but they are abysmally ignorant to deal with. "waddya want a device that reads books for?"
To just read Mobipocket books you cannot beat the Cybook, you can enlarge they text through a vast range, the screen is almost as good as a paperback in size and better in visual quality. The same applies to the Iliad except that it is a lot larger and therefore heavier, the battery does not last as long, but this is not a major problem.
After all that the CyBook is real value for money
The only reason I have both (plus a Sony) is that I have more money than sense perhaps, and it can get pretty boring in Baghdad believe it or not.
Cheers
John
