I am not too crazy about the hitherto available ebook readers by this brand. But at least this is the second front lit HD reader that will be available in Europe so at least I can choose from two instead of none or one brand only.
So I'll pick between the Kobo Glo and this Odyssey HD.
One pro for the Odyssey is that they say it will have physical buttons to turn pages, which the Kobo does not have (nor the Paperwhite for that matter) and I am not one that likes to smudge and dirt up my screen by touching it all the time. But we'll see ...

Anyways it is confirmed on this blog:
