I'm not so sure about the design...especially the "back side2 looks really ugly...^^

What really worries me about the Hanlins is the very present "ghosting" that can be seen on most if not all TaKirs V8 pics and the fact that software might or might not get developed for them.
What really worries me about the Iliad is the fact that we have no way of knowing how well the battery will really hold out. Also, with the long boot-time I have no idea how using it for casual reading would feel. also, the lack of a cover and the inability of the company to talk to their prospective customers worry me...
