Biggest problem with the Delstar--aside from screwy firmware and lack of customer support--was that it supported several ebook filetypes, but no formatting; all the books showed as plain text, no bold or italic. Possibly no pictures inside the ebooks; possibly no links or ToCs.

Definitely worth finding out if that's true of these before deciding whether to get one. While there are people who'd be happy with a plaintext ebook reader, they'd probably very much like to know that before purchase.
