May I translate this as "it is beta"?
Notice that she said she had a device in
May. So she may have talked to iRex and read all information. Then she waited until the shop opened. Notice that the
shop's iliad description does not say it's far from being finished. It's even september - the month where the final software would be available, according to iRex' earlier statements. (Final as in "with DRM", "with 1-2 seconds page flip", "with MP3 player", "with 21 hours", ...)
So she took the device, saw that it doesn't suit her needs, and threw it away. Sound pretty okay for me. She was even nice enough to say "it's beta" instead of "it's shit for my needs".
And all I read in this thread is how much and badly she missed the point that it does in fact suit the needs of the posters here. As if the needs of mobilereaders would be holy and outweigh whatever other people could want.
Other than what's written here she even wrote that she took the device for a particular use: Reading protected, preformatted PDF's.
