I agree that the chart isn't great, and their offer of "free books" is misleading. What ECTACO should do in the near future is revamp the chart and do a comparison of the jetBook to other 5" devices (upcoming Astak, Sony, Opus, etc). At the price I got it ($169) it's a great reader, but the competition is heating up! Astak looks especially interesting (Epson and all).

However, all things considered, ECTACO has been making lots of firmware updates that improve the jetBook's feature set, which is great.
