Your tone seems a bit harsh and aggressive. You don't even name any iRex unit in your possessions. So, what's your personal experience? When and how did iRex make you a "guinea pig"?
I still, after 13 units, can say: iRex iLiad's OS was and is benchmark. I've mentioned some of the features often enough.

And concerning "guinea pigs": Every single one of my units does have frequent firmware updates. So do my other gadgets. Sometimes it's add-ons (ePUB for Sony 505), sometimes it's bugfixes. I'm glad about all of them.
Okay, iRex 1000S still doesn't support ePUB. So what? It never has been advertised when I bought it. If they implement it, it's just kind of "goodwill".
And concerning bugfixes, I consider all 3 iRex units absolutely stable.
So, where's the "guinea pig"? And which other unit did function better/more reliable/closer to the advertising?
If a green light is the only "trouble" in any of my gadgets, I'm more than okay with that.
