See here for more information.

Hopefully this indicates that the new firmware is now "officially" finished...
I see. So Bookeen's been busy a) building the 5" Opus, b) creating the 'weltbilt' version of the Cybook, and c) building the 'gold edition' Cybook.

No, given that, I cannot believe that they've had the 'time' to finish the firmware updates they first promised OVER A YEAR AGO!

Thank goodness my repaired K2 is back home and working flawlessly!

Now if Sony would just hurry up and get my mom's updated PRS-500 back to her.

I think I've decided to sell off my remaining Cybook (64MB model) and use the money to buy either a BeBook or Astak 6" model to run OI. Keep checking eBay in the near future.
