There could be differences from the Netronix generic products listed on the site.

I definately concur. The Lite setup sounds perfect for my needs, but as I also plan on using this to view pdfs with images, only 4 shades of gray seems quite a bit outdated. After all, the Iliad has had 16 levels of gray for a long while now, and there have been a few out with 8 levels.

I'll wait on the price and see what kind of financial incentive would be worth the 4-grey level, as compared to the price difference for the next level up and it's WiFi, and longer battery life. (I assume longer battery, as RobertB mentioned 16k pages to a charge).
