I am sad to say that for me this is too little, way too late.

The worst of it for me is the glacial pace of delivery on this update plus the complete lack of comunnication. Even now, when we finally see something concrete, it is from users and not bookeen themselves even though the blog post lead me to believe there would be a firmware release on the 4th. Now we are waiting again with absollutely no information from as official source.

I suppose thaf if they had kept up regular updates on what was coming and the reason for any delays, and delivered something (anything!) in the last 9 months (9 months!) other than just keeping me waiting then I would feel differently, but this is too much.

I have been a Cybook Gen 3 user for over a year now and while I used recommend it to any and all that showed an interest, and many that didn't, I will now be recommending they try anything else first. I doubt I will ever get another device from bookeen.
