Crusader,
it might be worth waiting for the Frankfurt Book Fair, but please don't wait for Bookeen to produce new firmware - we have been waiting, Monday after Monday, for almost a year.
On the other hand, I would go ahead and buy an Opus. I have one and it rarely crashes. Mine hasn't since I removed the miniSD and that might be a cause of the problem. Anyway it has more than enough inbuilt storage for the most avid reader. I have had most of the ereaders from the Rocket onwards and the Opus provides by far the best reading experience. I am certainly not conscious of the screen being in any way small and the ability to read one handed makes it more convenient than a book.
