I just wanted to show that Bookeen did promise an update in the first quarter of 2009. All I want from bookeen is that they are a little more open to us, the customers. Tell what you're doing and people are happy. Don't tell a thing and they start to complain.....
At this very second I have 286 ebooks on my Cybook. It takes for gosh darn EVER to find an ebook. I've taken to editing the titles to an "Author's Last Name_Series Position(if any)_Title" title format so that I at least don't have to chase from page 5 of the Library to page 42 in order to switch between Schulman's "Alongside Night" and "Rainbow Cadenza". Yes, Bookeen NEEDS to 'fix' the folders issue! (It should be intuitively obvious why this is important. Each frigging page switch costs battery life!)

As for ePub support, I'd rather they fixed the various HTML issues and add in decent multiple-fonts-per-ebook support first and make ePub support a second development project.

And there's absolutel NO reason why they can't add RTF support for a bare-bones RTF ebook. (Of course, given that both my Cybooks have the minimal memory for RAM that may well mean I'll have to shell out MORE money for a more capable device. Sigh.)
