Tonight I will try to find out more on approximate timeline and thoughts on probable features (without giving out anything they consider confidential).

WHY I am mentioning this is the MobileRead Forum community, in particular, has wanted a 9.7 for what seems like forever... since the first day of this thread certainly. It is early and please so not get excited... but the planning is there!

This is what I'm waiting for. Touch screen, wifi etc would all be well and good but the 9.7" screen is really what I'm after. That's close to being trade paperback size, which has always been my preferred book type.

Very keen to hear more details when they become available.

Cheers,
