I like blue. It's my color. I used to get everything pink but I'm kind of over it now (though I still like pink...just redid my bedroom in pink and green). But for something I carry around every day, I like blue. A nice royal blue would be ideal but I like the idea of a dark slate blue as well. The electric blue is fine, too. I just like blue. :-) If that didn't happen, I would probably go with black or white, but some color would be fun.

ETA: The 2965 is lovely.

I have a Cybook Gen3, and am happy with it, but would love something more portable. As Robert has already pointed out, Astak being based in North America is a plus for me, being a resident of the U.S. I'm interested in all the 5" devices coming out--Bookeen and BEBook, for instance--but if Astak came out with such a device, especially at a ~$200 price point, I would buy it in a minute.

I am looking for a basic reading device. ePub please, and at least non-DRM Mobi would be awesome, as would eReader now that you're doing business with them. I mostly read public domain classics but I'd love to start making and collecting ePub docs if that's the way the wind is blowing.

I saw on Teleread that BEBook's 5" device will have the option for a wifi SD card (at an additional cost). That would be cool if possible. Good folder management or some other way of managing files and at least a half GB of onboard memory would be very much appreciated. I know it's early but I can't wait to hear more!
