Their quiet purge of their web site is leading me to believe there is something wrong with the hardware. It seems as though iRex management now no longer believes that the war on power management can be won and that the war will now not be over before Christmas.

They are circling the wagons, those that are still loyal have been asked to sign loyalty oaths binding their loyalty, and silence, to iRex. And the rest of us are going to be left out in the cold with less frequent updates to be punished for our dis-loyalty.

Whatever deal they thought they were going to make for DRM content? Their recent silence after telling us in early August to expect an announcement soon seems to indicate it is no longer happening. And as has been pointed out: an ebook reader with no DRM content is a paper weight. Or in this case, a VERY expensive paper weight.
