Thanks for this info, I was mistaken as to the Sony. I don't believe that Cybook can be charged via charger (other than USB charger) at all, and cannot think why, I used to charge mine via USB charger, w/o computer connection, and it was a major pain . The logic of such set-up eludes me totally. I almost have enough points to get a Sony for free, however I think Mentor may be also in the works (once it's out of the works, that is). I wonder if the plastic technology for Astak is far behind. I would think the larger the screen the more vulnerable to inevitable twists and damage caused by pressure.

Not only that, but hopefully a way better customer service, as well. I have only bad things to say about Bookeen's customer service, really. And your clients in the US get a benefit of US warranty and way better turnaround time in case of problems when the device has to be shipped.
