Getting excited that we're all about to see photos and/or videos soon.

Dear Mobelby:
A quick email to my friend at Jinke tells me that Jinke and BeBook will NOT be showing the V30 (EZ Reader Pro) or V9 (EZ Reader True) at CeBit. Jinke is instead concentrating on additional software and finishing up on recent additions of software that had minute glitches. They have reminded BeBook, like they have Astak, that all pictures and info on the V30 are to be kept completely secret at this point. They want to let no specs or pictrues get out that could be used by their competition.
My friend did say that ONE Flexi screen from PVI did arrive and they are starting actual work now on the 9.7 inch (what will be EZ Reader True). It is not vaporware and it is coming out. BUT, like everything Jinke does, they are taking their time to get it right.
I, also, grow weary of not being able to tell all about what is coming. However, I know the EZ Reader turned out incredibly solid and with no recalls or glitches. That leads me to believe that Jinke does indeed know what they are doing and all this secrecy will result in a great introduction of another two solid and flawless devices. My impatience is tempered by my agreement with them that they and Astak cannot afford a flawed device; and you would not want to buy one.
