shame, shame, for not making any entries into the Blogs about all this, Bookeen must be aware that customers will pick up on the Weltbild change to spec .....
Or one can see it this way:

- The weltbild.de-edition is a special version only available from this shop. Therefor it can be seen as a different device just using the same hardware. Why it has no new name or even a Weltbild-Edition added, I don't know?!

- The "normal" CyBooks new firmware will have several new features added + the ability to read non-DRM ePUB. This will be the main branch of the firmware (no need to add new features to the Weltbild-Edition).

- As the special Weltbild-Edition is only available in Germany (+ maybe Austria & Switzerland) through weltbild.de, this doesn't interfere with the standard CyBook firmware.

At least I hope so...
