Slightly off-topic (but close), I have been mulling on the lack of major upgrades on the CyBook, and have come to the following speculation. (And it's just that, a personal speculation).
The good people doing Openinkpot have commented on the space limitations of the Cybook in implementing OI. Add to that no major upgrades to CYbook, and this new semi-clone of Cybook that has all sort of extras that the Cybook doesn't....I wonder if the Cybook hasn't had a major upgrade to firmware because there is enough dedicated firmware memory for an upgrade? And this new semi-clone has more firmware memory, allowing all the extra bells and whistles we were expecting for the Cybook?
Just a speculation....
