In the attached link, Gizmodo gave the Entourage Edge a 0% chance of survival and essentially deemed it dead on arrival. What are they thinking about?
I know that it is heavy but when I look at it, I see something with twice the usability of the Que which is definately years beyond the Kindle.
Am I missing something here? I am on the pre-order list for the Edge so I really want to know what everyone else thinks about this review.

I'd take that DoA of theirs with a lot of salt.
Take the Nook:
According to them a survivability of 80%.
4 + points, one of which is "Lending and in-store Barnes & Noble action will be huge" and we still have to find out how that will work and the other "Native ePub support"
3 +/- points
2 - points.
Then the Entourage Edge, survivability of 0%.
3 + points
4 +/- points
2 - points, including price, but as it can do more, you'd expect a higher price tag, right?
No mention of epub reading. If that's a point in favour of the Nook, shouldn't it also be a point in favour of the Edge?
So, one +/- point less and a drop of 80%??
Right...
I still like the Edge, haven't seen anything in that "review" that would make me like it less. I'm just not crazy about Android...
