Yeap. And that why the new Gen 3 firmware, the Opus, and whatever reader with wi-fi comming in the end of the year.

Bookeen have made when there gonna do clear enough. True, it lack official com, but the info the there.
The only shadowy, and nonetheless important, is how the will handle the mobi drm restriction. (i think that this, as well as the opus, is the cause for the delay).
No, they HAVEN'T made anything clear as to what they're going to do-when. They've made vague pronouncements with no clear, precise or adhered-to deadlines.

Yes, they've issued an abberation of the Gen3 that uses ePub - for Germany. Yes, they're 'demo'ing the Opus. But they've clearly decided their original customers aren't worth supporting.

Am I ticked off at the lack of support from Bookeen? You betcha. Can they do much about it? Not really as they have demonstrated their refusal to do proper updates in a reasonable time.

To be honest, I've just about decided on making my next reader a Kindle DX - unless the BeBook 2 can be fitted with OI - love that OI!
