Robert,
thanks again for being so open to discussion. i'm thrilled to hear that you're taking the eb1150 seriously ; as i've already said, i really do feel that the design of the eb1150 is way ahead of anything currently being manufactured for ergonomy (as do plenty of others, as you've seen), and i think you'll be able to understand why if you spend a few hours reading on it, as Xenophon recommended. it's really refreshing to see a manufacturer taking the users recommendations seriously.
as for your invitation to come and discuss these subjects in Las Vegas during CES, i would love to do that, but sadly las vegas is really far away and really expensive to get to for me, and i can't just hop over there for a few hours to take a look at Netronix's and Jinke's prototypes (believe me, i wish i could !). i imagine that the same is true for a lot of people. so forum discussion is as good as most of us can do. of course, if you wanted to ship me a prototype or two for me to test out and review, i would be absolutely thrilled to help you out and give you a very detailed report on my impressions !
you just let me know, i'll pm you my shipping address whenever you want !
thanks again for being so open with everybody here at mobileread !
