Sorry, but people should probably save money and give this a miss. Although, Ice Cream Sandwich on this would be cool.

He is very impressed by the hardware, especially the thickness, or more precisely lack of. Less enamored of the software, he laments that you can't connect with Dropbox or Evernote despite it having WiFi, so he hopes this is just the beginning from Sony. He is also convinced that it will be available as a general consumer Product at a lower price Point.

Not me.I will only not buy it if they do not commercialize this outside Japan. Other than that, they already have one (future) client.

I thought long and hard about getting it but I decided against it, because its stupid expensive for a device with a non-removable battery (will only be useful for 2 years maybe) and japanese language on it.. not mentioning that you dont have any kind of guarantee or support for it..

Something that is usually expressed through karma on these boards, but you are welcome either way.

I will as soon as my Japanese contact will travel to Europe again or the device is available in Europe.

Unfortunately almost all E-Book Reader don't have a removable battery.

If you consider the long charge cycles the battery should last more than five years, perhaps more like ten.

Sehr geehrter Herr Xxxxx,

Ich habe bei unseren Produktexperten nachgefragt, und es liegt uns keine Information vor.
Für all die neuen Line-ups, die im Frühjahr auf den deutschen Markt kommen, haben wir schon Information vorliegen, deswegen nehme ich an, dass dieser nicht vor Sommer bei uns auf den Markt kommt.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Short translation:

We have asked our product manager. He has no information about a release in Germany. We suspect the product to be released in Germany not before this summer.

According to Goodereader guy, for USA&Canada it is march/april for 1100/1200 $ but again through Sony USA Business Unit only i.e. no Sony stores, Best Buy etc. for single buyers.

from 1:15 min.

Guess we'll have to wait another year for those 300 dpi screens and hopefully the price well below 1000 $.

from 10:00 min.

As long as I will be able to order it I won't mind the 'intended target customer group'.
