Locking up every few days if you don't disable auto shutdown? I liked my Gen3. It offered a lot of control over the layout of the books I read, supported mobi dictionaries, and allowed me to read library books. If they kept up with mobi support, it would still be a good value. But 350 for a generic ADE ereader that offers less than the other readers do? Why should I buy this cybook gold when I can get a pocketbook with the same hardware, superior firmware ( whcich does have dictionary support under ADE, which allows annotation, supports more formats, and has more layout options than even the mobi Gen3), and an 80 dollar cheaper price? Oh, and it doesn't lock up and has folder support. If I want 5 inch device, I can get a pocketbook 360 for 110 dollars less and roughly the same price as the opus. What is Bookeen offering that I can't get elsewhere cheaper and with better customer service?
