Yes, that does have a bearing on my decision. From what I could gather Hanlin has released some things but not everything required yet? Where as Bookeen have refused to release anything stating NDA issues.

All other things been equal that would definatly sway my decision towards the Hanlin.

The iliad seems to be one of the few devices that is totally GPL compliant which is a big plus in their favour and tbh I'd have paid the extra if it hadn't been for the poor battery life.
