Hi. As my son broke the screen of my Cybook Gen 3, I've been thinking about replacing it with a cheaper and smaller device, like the Opus, instead of repairing the screen.
However, all my dictionaries and e-books are in Mobipocket format, and I really loved the upgrade with folder view as well...
So, a stupid question: Will I be able to upgrade the Opus to use the Mobipocket firmware or is it just a future possibility that Bookeen mentions? And will it work as well with the Opus as it did for my beloved Gen 3?
Sorry if this has already been answered in another thread, I'd just like to be sure of my facts before deciding.
