Yes to have "unbricking" functionality would be important but IMHO what's even more important is a complete SDK and release of the kernel sources. With those I'm quite sure that not only me but a lot of other people would be willing to take the risk of bricking the device now and then.

Functionally poor? As far as I can tell the iLiad have at least the functionality of the Sony reader (except wendor-locked DRM). Regarding other future readers, who can tell?
