Robert,

I have considered buying an Astak device (and have been waiting to see the 9-inch model) but I am also very reluctant to buy one. When I bought my Sony, I had 30 days to return it if it wasn't what I wanted. Amazon offers a 30-day return policy; B&N offers a 15-day return policy.

When I asked you about Astak's return policy because I would have to buy it sight unseen, your response was only if the unit is defective, in which case it will be replaced. There is no option to return a device that simply isn't satisfactory even though there is no way to go to a local store and check it out.

Consequently, although I may consider an Astak device, the reality is that it is highly unlikely that I will order one absent the ability to return it because it doesn't meet my needs. It is impossible to tell how a device feels when held and used until it is held and used, but with Astak, it is then too late.
