They should fix that. I strongly agree with the OP. Funny thing, the main company website says a lot about the company to some people. And the main site screams, trinkets and conveys less nice electronics that you would want to buy from. That's why someone folks try to knock the product as cheap Taiwanese product or something. That and ignorance. But then almost all the other reader were made down the street from the Astak devices. Not knocking the products, just the site. It is a little everywhere and feels seedy to navigate and I almost turned away until I saw the slightly better ezreader sight. I think it's the way all the products are just jumbled in together on the main sight. They need to be categorized and roped off.

Also too much flash for my liking. When I was learning web design at school, I abhorred all things flash. I use to love formatting and presentation. I think most companies that aren't Sony, are rocking some odd or either fugly sites. Amazon presents the normal store format for the Kindles site, can't knock or praise them for that.
