Well, that looks interesting...but appears to have no release date? Is there some sort of clue I'm missing? It says '~2016.5 COMING SOON~', does that mean *May* 2016? As in, right now? (I've never seen any date of the form '2016.5'. I know sometimes dates are yyyy-mm-dd, but yyyy.m? Huh?)

Also, I know I said at least Android 4...but why is a *new* device coming out with that? That seems dumb. I mean, I can live with it, but it seems dumb.

But Bluetooth would be nice, I find myself completely baffled by ereaders that come with headphone jacks and not bluetooth. I mean, I don't listen to any audio using them currently (My phone is perfectly fine at that...and, yes, if I wanted to listen to audio books I'd *still* use my phone.), but if I was going to listen to audio, it would be via bluetooth. I don't even *own* a wired headset.

Also, I'm hopeful they fix C67ML's totally idiotic partition setup, where to install almost anything, you had to get something like App2SD.
