Thanx for the swift reply guys

I have been an owner of cybook gen3 and aware of the firmware promises by bookeen and that's the one reason I am quite scared of their 'commitment'.

I am staying in China for few months and the prices for both the devices are similar in horrible equations . Pocketbook cost me $240 and $125 for shipping( I KNOW,from the main website ) , while opus cost me $325 and $12 for shipping (from expansys) .

The cover itself I see as a big reason to go towards pocketbook , are there switching buttons on both sides or only left side of the device ?

I only wish I could order pocketbook without the shipping charges ..

What do you guys suggest ? Hanlin v5(seems like another gen3 to me,not really inclining towards it )
