Dear all:

I now know that there are two camps: one values the ease and convenience of the 6 inch and the other wants bigger and badder. Both of you will be getting your wishes soon enough. The Mentor line alone will be spotlighting the 6 inch and put it out with plenty of horsepower. The top of the 6 inch Mentor line will be the Mentor Invicta. This will have 16 levels of grey scale, 600MHz CPU, 16,000 pages to a single charge, Epson controller, and all sorts of fabulous features. The Mentor Invicta is slated for a Q3, 2009 release.

The 9.7 inch Mentor Electra will have 16 level grey scale flexiscreen, 600MHz processor, 16,000 page to a single charge, and READS TRUE on 8 by 10!! Right now the product roadmap says October-November 2009. An option on the Mentor Electra will be 26K COLOR screen with much improved battery life.
