Nate,

I've seen the NAEB site - there does not appear to have been much activity there since mid March, so I would be in for a long wait.

It just seems a little absurd to me that Bookeen say they have tried to price the units equivalently across the currency types, but the exchange rate on US/Euro is 1.6/1 while the Cybook price is 1.18/1.

I've also read a lot about the Bookeen people being notoriously bad at responding to customer emails - does anyone have a good contact at Bookeen that I can talk to?
