It will be interesting to see if the "page-turn + flash" feature of eink has been reduced significantly. Also, why doesn't anyone mention device start-up time? That always bugs me the most with netbooks, either I have to leave it on standby (using battery) or it takes a minute or so to start. When I have 10-20 minutes to read, it is a nuisance.
The jetBook opens (not using standby) in about 3 seconds. This is the second-best feature in my opinion (the first being the instant page turns). Obviously, I don't like waiting! ;-)
Has it been stated that the new V5 (5") will have a fast boot-up time - or perhaps it is quick enough already (I don't really know - maybe a non-issue)?
