We will know more Friday or Monday as our General Manager sits down with the factory on the Pocket PRO. The present word is they may arrive the first week in August; but I am trying to say second week to allow a little leeway.

In the meantime, I want a pre-sell list as soon as the talks end in China. I want to MOVE on this and they are just being cautious.

I just keep seeing SO many people on the Cool-er thread and cannot imagine it. It makes no sense. The Pocket PRO is so far beyond Cool-er and has far better colors and speed and features and price.
While I understand that you're biased, you have to realize that your reader isn't going to meet everybody's needs or preferences. Particularly things as subjective as which has 'better color' - while I am waiting for some more live photographs of both, I lean toward the Cool-er colors, since the Astak ones tend to be very loud.

Not to mention until your product is actually available for purchase, the Cool-er reader is going to be superior - because now people can actually get it. And I won't believe the Pocket PRO's price until it's being sold, because, perhaps through no fault of your own, you haven't yet been able to actually deliver any of your readers at the original promised price.
