Yep, many reviews don't talk about what I want to know about (weight, ergonomic design of buttons, refresh rate, search, dictionary support). Whispernet is not an issue outside of the States.

Still, Mr. Pogue's review has some new and interesting facts:
Quote:
...The company says that it will offer additional batteries for $5....starting this fall, you’ll be able to sell books you’ve written on Coolerbooks.com; you’ll keep 50 percent of each sale.....you can share a Cool-er book you’ve bought with four other people....Even when you’ve successfully registered a “next page” button press, it can take several seconds for the screen to change accordingly.....performing a type-size change requires — no joke — 16 key presses..... It doesn’t play Audible audio books....

Hmmm... food for thought.
