I won't link to it, but badereader have shown off a prototype of the Viva. Model PB802.

The casing looks identical to the Era, except bigger (they weren't shown side by side). Same accessory attachment flap on the back, with perhaps more pogo pins than on the Era?

The buttons looked like they were now angled slightly up in the centre of the device, which I think is a change from the Era which has completely flat buttons.

The OS/UI was "not final" and doesn't like Pocketbook's other readers at all, and honestly looks like it was written by Onyx. That's weird. Quite a bit didn't work. What did work required several refreshes to look correct.

There were some (faked?) images showing the screen with warm light on, cold light on, and lights off.

No price was mentioned!
