Thanks for 'harmonizing'!

They say there is a delay due to 'development problems'. I may be wrong, but it does not sound as if the large readers will be there within the next couple of months.

Earlier this year the Chinese lady who is the CEO of Onyx commented in an interview that they had the design of the large readers ready, but decided not to start selling them yet because they found them too fragile. A large glass screen like that breaks too easily. I don't know if that is still the problem, but if they decided on a redesign it's obvious that that takes time.
