yep, the opus looks really great ! nice and compact, good ergonomy (FINALLY page turning buttons on the side of the screen !!!!! and since there is an accelerometer, you can use them with right or left hand), epub, folders (!!), and very rapid refresh. i can't wait until they are available, i think quite a few people are going to love them !

They might think of it as a betatesting release.
