A full charge on my Mimas has been lasting 10-15 days, so I'm very happy about that. This device is very fast and the screen and lighting is fantastic. I love being able to fit so much text on each page.
I just want the firmware improvements I mentioned on the previous page, and then it will be perfect for me.

Couldn't be more agreed . I'm quite happy with the mimas and I think they are on the right track . As far as know about GPL compliance they have some stuff to solve to be honest as @pazos pointed out so I'll wait some progress in this area before any further commitment in helping them. If the solve this issues I'd think they just made a wonderful device for the money with a gorgeous design. If only were a little bit lighter ....
On the other hand I already had my ration of Sony devices and I prefer a hundred times this the mimas approach of giving features and room for hacking over the minimalistic-but-good-finished Sony (or any other reader apart from the good old NST)
