Got my new "Pocketbook Color Lux" e-book reader yesterday, the "world's 1st E-Ink reader with color display and frontlight". The gadget (software and design) is made by an Ukrainian company (assembly and hardware is made in Taiwan). Even my wife loved it when she found she could play Sudoku on it and it came preinstalled with hundreds of Russian und Ukrainian books. You can access the Internet via WLAN, and plug in earphones to listen to books or music. The touch interface works quite well and is pretty responsive for an E-Ink device. So I think it's really nice and useful. Of course, I also found some disadvantages: Because of the additional RGB-layer, the background is very dark (different from usual E-Ink devices), so you can't read indoors without switching the frontlight on (outdoors in sunlight it's perfect, though). Also, though the large screensize of 8 inch is nice, the resolution is pretty low. Still, all in all, I really like it. Well done, PocketBook
