I was NOT aware of the EZ Reader Pocket PRO. It seems to be a fine device with plenty going for it. Dimention-wise, it is VERY close to the Opus:

Opus - 108 x 151 x 10 mm - 150g
PEZ - 105 x 151 x 10 - 160g

The difference there is insignificant until you consider that the Opus has smooth curves. Still, not unough difference matter.

I get my tech news from Engadet.com. I scan it once a day and count on them to warn me of new-cool-stuff. They haven't mentioned it, and the only reference to it on their entire site is a comment by 'robertb' under the BeBook Mini entry. Engadget had been pretty good about capturing e-reader news.

Any hint or rumors as to when the p-reader pro will be availble?

With all that's being said, one must decide if the devise (of one's choice) is needed NOW, or to WAIT. This is an individual decision that no amount of hype (on ANY device) can overcome.
