Ummm ... no.

The vast majority of Onyx-buyers, myself included, buy B&W readers.

Say rather:
Onyx & Pocketbook:
  1. FBReader, and thus any font you want and highly adaptable formatting
  2. Directory-based navigation, and thus fully-customisable library structure
  3. Physical page-turn buttons
  4. Lack of tie-in to a (DRMed) walled garden.

Onyx - not a major ereader thus they do not have the clout to get the best deals.
I simply bought it direct from China (where they're made), and got a fairly good deal regardless. Pocketbooks do however tend to be fairly pricey.
