Sounds good! The T68 is basically an Android-powered version of what I have now (a Kobo Aura HD), which is nice, but not enough to make me switch. But as I find the 6.8" screen a little too small, and the 9.7" of my Kindle DX, in comparison, a bit too large, I think the i86 will be just what the doctor ordered

Which is funny, because I found the iRex iLiad, which also was 8" back in the day, too large when I bought my Cybook Gen3 way back in 2007 (besides being ridiculously expensive, even compared to my Cybook, which was far from cheap back then)
