Fair enough, its your choice
I'll just like to say that saying that 50% chance of getting a problem is a misnomer and a bit of misleading figure.
One of our members who is a reseller and has sold a few hundred of them, commented that the figure closer to 3-5%, which while high is nowhere near as high as 50 %.
The reason it may look so is , that one, the early fimwares were a bit rushed, and as such had some problems, which have been mainly rectified in the newer versions, and two, the squeeky wheel is always louder, and as such problems get a lot more airtime
.
I'll not say that the Gen 3 has not had problems, or Bookeen is not the best in responding, but it is a decent product in a new industry
.
Edit: As harry has corrected me, the figure was 1-2% not the 3-5 % I initially put down
