really the only REAL pros of the device are when comparing it with the kindle 1.
Eink 5" screen w/ 8 Gray Scales
Small Size.
Neutral
Possibly able to use with the new barnes and noble book store.
Cons
No Wireless
No Dictionary
priced the same, I would still recommend the kindle.

I would actually put "No Wireless Tether" to be a PRO.
The thing about wireless access is 9 times out of 10, you're stuck with where the unit calls home to. Unable to change home-pages, stuck with downloading from only one source.
I'd much rather hook it to my PC and transfer the books. At least this way, I'd have full control over what went ON my machine, and even more control of what is REMOVED.
But for those who NEED wireless of any kind, it could be a Con. But not for me.
