I am pretty excited about the specs and price of Pocketbook eReader. Mobius Display and 2 GB Ram is awesome!
Regarding Onyx launching a 13.3 inch ereader, I can look at the situation from two viewpoints.
1) I have been closely following Onyx for the past 3 years. We first came to know that Onyx was working on Android in 2012. I expected them to launch android based devices in 2013 but it took them 2 years. Now they are very busy with T68, M96, E43 and i86. Based on how slowly everything is done in eReader wold, it will take them at-least one and a half year.
2) Second View: The main reason for the delay was probably due to software development. It took them 2 years to adapt android for e-ink screen. Now the software is ready, hardware shouldn't be that hard to assemble. So if they wish to launch 13.3 inch ereader, they can do so within 3-4 months. And i think nearly all the buyers who buy M92/M96 would like to upgrade to 13.3 inch eReader assuming the price is decent. The market is there.
