649 Euro??!! I have a rich girlfriend :P but I think it's a little bit high. I have to give it some thought. Really have to take a good look at the Sony Reader.

Did you see their planning:

Quote:

June: Ordering and shipment of iLiad

July/August features

Hotspot support
Apabi format (in Asia only)
"Re-open" a file on last read page
Support for an E-Book DRM format (to be announced soon)
Page-break support in HTML (instead of scrolling)

August/September/October features

Dictionary support*
Annotation on PDF/TXT/HTML/Apabi*
File management on the iLiad
MP3 playing
Search (for or in) documents*
Bookmarks in documents*
Page turning speed improvement

*Improvement of functionality related to file formats might be limited to what formats allow
So is there a "new" version for consumers in September or is it all based on a firmware upgrade so that there will be no difference between the early versions and the September "consumer" versions?
