Will all the colors be available at the same time or will some animals be more equal? There's this birthday coming up in september... ;-)
On a different note, and just out of curiosity, (no offense intended) can you say what your company's take is on OpenInkpot? Do you folks see it as a plus that helps move hardware or a minus that detracts from your investment in ADE?
Obviously you *don't* have to answer, but if the former, it might help sell the Pro if you talked to those folks about getting, say, their May snapshot ported over to the Pro and provided a link to their project in your support Forums.
Just a (wild-and-crazy) thought.

Dear fjtorres:
ALL Pocket PRO colors wil ship out on the same dates. Although the black and white ones may arrive a few days before the other colors, it was a good decision to ship all six out at the same time to be fair to all.
There are relatively equal numbers of each color coming and, at least for the first two months or so, all colors will certainly be available. After that, anything can happen. It is impossible to place small orders with the China-based factory for colors... so there may be a few times when we are out of one or more colors. The Slate Blue, for example, is heavily desired.
Wallcraft, one of the MobileRead Forum moderators, knows Open InkPot very, very well and knows the Astak devices. I cannot say anything like: "we love" or "we promote" or "we endorse" any other product or another format. I personally have heard great things about Open InkPot; but I would hereby invite Wallcraft to jump in here and give you more specifics. He is always prowling this site so I am sure he will reply to you soon!
