Lo and behold, fresh into our tattle box, Bookeen tips us with the release of a new edition of the Cybook Gen3 e-reader!

Cybook Gen3 New Edition offers three two improvements over the original Gen3 release:

More internal memory: the Cybook internal memory reaches 512MB now (480MB is available for storage)
A new firmware: Firmware 1.1 offers more stability, a longer battery lifetime and a more reactive button interface (the upgrade is also available for the original Gen3)
A revised housing: the navigation button offers a soft hand feeling with a tactile feedback

Prices remain the same (Standard $350, Deluxe $450), and as for availability, Bookeen estimates an average shipping delay of 12 days.
