I was thinking about buying a Bebook since I am seriously annoyed about the short battery time and the lack of page numbers on the Cybook. But now I think I will wait for the txtr reader since they seems to have done everything I care about exactly right (SDK available so you can get a user community that writes programs for the device, net connectivity, and so on).
