One more question: does BeBook support non-English letters, too?
probably, send me over a sample doc and I'll take photos of it rendered on screen.

If anyone else wants this, simply email it over to pookey at gmail dot com.

I didn't know.
Cool. The only major feature I miss on my Sony, but I don't even wish for it because I know they will never implement their rival format

Of course they will, don't worry. They shipped mine as soon as they had it in stock, and I received it 2 business days after the shipment.

What kind of letters are you talking about? Accented letters are certainly not a problem, nor is cyrillic. I'm quite sure that it also supports chinese, japanese and korean.

I am looking forward for your review. I wonder how you are going to read pdf files on 6" screen.

RSS and WIFI

The Bebook homepage is announcing that wifi and rss feeds are on the way:

"From november/december 2008 Bebook will also have RSS news feeds support and Wifi. Then it's not only a bookreader, but a portable newspaper too. With this feature you can download and read your favorite magazine or news wherever you are! "

http://mybebook.com/

Presumably, this means that a new model is to be released?

I assume so: I can hardly imagine that the device already has WiFi-hardware on board, but that the firmware just doesn't support it yet
Although it might be possible to use an SDIO-WiFi card...
