Well, RobertB had a working pre-production prototype in his hands for thorough testing. And I believe he put it through a lot of use in order to catch bugs and glitches. Do *you* know something that we don't? Or you just assume that page in e-ink can not be refreshed without inverting the screen.
I know that that RobertB is a marketing and sales employee, and because of this we have to take into account his obvious bias, yet why would he lie to us? We would learn the truth the moment Astak EZ Reader Pocket Pro hits the market and he would damage his reputation beyond repair. And I believe that Pocket Pro WILL hit the market sooner or later.

I have got Sony PRS-500, and when you move the cursor through the menu the display (cursor position) is changed instantaneously. And mind you, PRS-500 uses even older generation of "display controller" than the current devices. In fact PRS-500 uses Field-programmable gate array instead of a "proper" controller.
