I'll admit to being one of the disgruntled ones about the Cybook - although I'm as annoyed with myself as I am with Bookeen. When I was trying to decide what to upgrade to, I read Bookeen's website and blog and at that time, it was saying that folder support (and the ability to delete from the reader, I believe) was imminent.
I chose to believe them. That's where I get annoyed with myself. Caveat emptor and all that.
I've been through two firmware upgrades and neither included what I had used to make my upgrade choice. That and the sticky button (which isn't a problem with the 512 machine, so I'm told) killed any good feelings I had for this reader.
I have loaned the reader out to a friend who does a lot of travelling - and who hasn't had a smoother-operating button to compare it to - and she likes it and has made noises about buying it from me...maybe. So I may be getting rid of the Cybook soon.
Betcha that new firmware with the folders and delete function will show about a week after that, eh?
