Iliad is way too expensive to display to the public and NRC is not the succes as we all had hoped.
I imported my CyBook to the Netherlands via the US as the EU price is not helping popularizing ebook devices. While my CyBook is most open to all e-book formats Sony trying to get into the Dutch market with their own e-book format is not going to make it.
Our Dutch e-book market is too small for a format-war.

A library in Almere/Lelystad is experimenting with e-books In Dutch an article on biblion.nl activities

May I remind you all that the Dutch embrace new technology: CD's, DVD's were more common while the rest of the world was still working with phono-gram rolls
