It is not suspicious or anything else... it is just a sign that we are trying still to do this right. Progress is being made and we will have firm release dates coming up with new pictures and more things you have all asked for.

Case cleared up as far as I am concerned RobertB

I guess we've all been burned by vaporware and promises of new technologies at more affordable prices and didn't want to see Astak go the same route.

Plus, as I'm learning as well, e-book readers seem to be a pretty dedicated group of folks.

Thanks for taking the time to set the record straight.

(Still think you should get some of those units used in Taiwan into some reviewers hands. You can label them prototypes but, with your release date(s) coming up soon, you could start generating some positive pre-launch buzz. But skip that noob Walt Mossberg, unless Apple makes it, he hates everything. I've got some suggestions if you need them. And no, I would not include myself)
