One, how does the mobipocket books look on the cybook? I have a sony reader (cant use it though 'cause the battery died) and its books look very good on it.

Two, how do the other formats look? I have had a problem with trying to read pdfs on the sony reader (namely it doesent work very well). Does the cybook do it better?

Three, how does the battery life compare to the sony reader?

Finally, whats the selection of new books compared to the sony reader? Do publishers still publish in mobipocket format?

Also, how long does it take to boot up? Ive seen the 24 seconds for full startup but does that mean every time I turn it on after "standby" does it take that long? The reader started up immediately unless the battery drained and then it took a while.
