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.
I think Irex has certainly had some issues in the past and they've struggled getting this thing out, but I'm very encouraged by what I'm hearing from the people here on this board. The battery life and speed sound great and there is a fix for those folks who require folders. I can't wait to pick one up.
