I'm somewhat involved elsewhere with the deployment of firmware, and it's easier to factory fit firmware than it is to supply something that end users can use. However that's at a much lower level than the Cybook. I tend to agree... again the only thing I can think of is that Bookeen want one firmware update to rule them all.

I think I'm being over optimistic though and giving them the benefit of the doubt where it's not deserved.

Still. They've promised the firmware for Christmas. Haha.
