It is great I can read some books, I will never go to a normal book again but If there will be other devices I will think twice before buying a Bookeen product and I will never tell friends to buy such a device

PDF support sucks. Been there, done that. Time to move on. I researched e-ink readers for some time before settling on the Cybook. I liked the Cybook for one reason - it handled secure Mobi ebooks. I wasn't looking for a PDF viewer as that's not - at this time - it's strength.

I'm seriously hoping that Delete and Folder-navigation functionality are being added, and I'm sure that ePub is getting there, but I think I'll wait until I can buy a 9.7" model before I go looking for PDF support. And I believe it's been made quite clear here at MR that the current "champ" of PDF was the iLiad - far beyond my budget.
