This is just a fun poll to see who everyone thinks will be first to mainstream market with their 5" reader!

Both Astak and Sony have indicated that their products will ship at the end of AUG. Astak has been pitching it impressive looking EZReader Pocket Pro for some time, while Sony just recently leaked their PRS-300 Bomb last week.

I think that either reader would be a great addition to someone's gadget pile. This poll is strickly to predict who will actually ship first!

When I say mainstream market, I mean that pre-orders are filled, and you can actually find a device in a store if you get there early enough (or in the case of the more internet-sales-dependant Astak reader - the time from 'ordered to shipped' is a few reasonable days.)

Another words - Who will be first to supply the majority of demand?

So get in there and VOTE!
