The problem with Cybook is that it's from an obscure French company without the marketing muscle of Sony. Unless some powerhouse company (Amazon, Google...) picks it up it's going to be a limited reach item like the Iliad.
Which store are you going to be able to walk in and test the Cybook?
For me and you and people here it does not matter that much, but to reach critical mass you'll have to be able to pick it up from Wal Mart. Sony is not there yet, but as of now is the only device with the potential to get there.
