You could say that about a lot products... Marketing isn't always the same as the actual features...

Further on than we are now. Each month (or so) the Irex team continues to improve and enhance the product...

Its a cheaper product with a more defined role and so there are more posters.

It depends what you want a vehicle for. Off-road, or urban...? The same for an e-reader. I'd advise any buyer to look at either product and pick the best for them. The Sony Reader seems great for viewing (pre-packaged books. The Irex strengths lie in its versatility. (So perhaps the Irex is the Range-Rover) (Actually in the UK the RangeRover might be more prestigious than the X5...)
