Where do you get your figure of "10-15% of machines" from? I'd be astonished if that figure were accurate - Tribble, the German seller for the CyBook Gen3, which some people regard as more fragile than the Sony Reader, tells us that he's seeing failure of rates of under 1% for the machines he's selling. If Sony really have a failure rate more than 10x that of Bookeen, there's something very badly wrong.
