Hi,

this has been quite a long and sad thread with lots of desperate thoughts "Why can't I buy the Sony reader for a "reasonable price", especially if I'm from Europe?".
Well, aren't there any (perhaps better) alternatives?
Recently, I read some brief articles about PocketBook CAD Reader Flex and I was surpriced it should be theoretically for about half the price Sony wants for their DPT-S1.
What do you guys think?
Although the PocketBook's e-reader should have been ready by the end of 2014 I haven't found any references for this product to be ready for sale yet. Nevertheless, you may be much better informed than I am.
I wonder whether we shouldn't be rather waiting expectingly for the PocketBook's new ereader instead of hoping for Sony to start selling their product in Europe (and for an affordable price).
