I believe the working on the cybook firmware to be some kind of sisyphean labor.

There is the one guy at the Bookeen who has his "office" in the darkest cellar of the headquarters. He programs day and night and then walks up all the stairs to the top of the Bookeen building with a Cybook held above his head, and when he arrives at the top he shows his new firmware to the CEO himself. But within a second the Cybook freezes and his work starts all over again, so he has to run down all the way into the deep dungeons of the Bookeen building and start over on his cursed firmware.

There is always somebody working on the new firmware for the Cybook...

What very few people know is that this person also is responsible for the support mails...
