Yes, I believe they were planning on replacing the DR1000s. I do not think they repair anything really, and therefor all repairs will cost about 300Euro's - a tad more than the price to produce a DR I'm assuming.
And frankly, in my opinion, even 300Euro is way too much for a device that sucks as much as the DR1000 !
Note that I also have a Cybook Gen 3, ithe build quality , the useablity, the protective cover, the battery, the stability, ... everything really, is better than on a DR... except for the size of its screen. But as they say in Dutch : "Een ezel stoot zich slecht 1 maal aan dezelfde steen", roughly translated : "No more iRex for me".
