Dear Shezzy:
Just to clarify as there is some confusion:
The only known difference between the Mentor and the LiteBook is the format. We MAY have to do insignificant bells and whistles change to keep Amazon happy as they demand exclusivity... but you should not note any real difference in specs or such.
The LiteBook in 5, 6, and 9.7 inch will have Mobipocket format and that is all that is allowed on it.
The Mentor is an Open-Format ePub device that will have eReader at least on it and may contain other formats such as Adobe Digital Editions (if they cooperate with us). For sure it will have a .pdf on it and Adobe is our first choice.
