Set aside the question of when, we already pretty much know "what" will be in the next FW:
1) ePub -> If you're waiting for that then it's definitely valid to set a deadline and switch to a competitor if there is nothing on the horizon a few months from now
2) folder view -> while this is a feature I am hoping to get my hands on, it's not "the one feature" I would rather buy a new device than live without it. I am also not sure whether this would then qualify as "better software"
3) a few tweaks and fixes -> there's almost certainly nothing ground-shaking in there
So, while I think the FW update might make a valued difference for current Cybook users, I highly doubt it will change much for someone who would rather buy a new device for all the new features and possibilities which are on the market today. I would not set unrealistic hopes on the coming FW, it will not bring the Cybook on par with the state-of-the-art of today (after all, the model is two years old), it's more of a polish and shine than a new motor.
One exception, as mention above though, is ePub. That is a new motor and something entirely new if you want to go down that road...

"ePub" is what I am waiting for. No much........
I also want this supplier to do what it says it's going to do...ship the firmware or just tell us what is happening.......
I have even e-mailed them a number of times and not got an answer......
