Maybe you can consider
http://e-readerweb.nl
I got an I86 from them less than 2 weeks ago.
Their website is just in Dutch but after watching the site with "google translate" i wrote them in english.
The 'rumours' i heard from the German website to which i kept sending mails for a couple of months, is that e-ink is not producing those old 8 inches pearl screen so that Onyx can't produce new I86 so that the german store does not have to sell so that we customers can't have an ereader.
It seems a lose-lose strategy to me, starting from e-ink.
Maybe if eink does not fail we will see 8 inches carta devices (from Onyx or someone else).
Isn't people interested in big ereaders or they surrender to search ?
