I bought mine at BooksOnBoard (http://booksonboard.com/index.php?BO...duct&PRODUCT=5) bc they have a really good price and warranty. They charge $399 (plus they give you $50 worth of credit to use at their site) for the whole package - case, charger, USB cable, etc. And they're shipping from the US instead of Europe, so shipping costs are relatively cheap. They answer emails really quickly if you have any problems... I'd definitely buy from them again.

Anywhooo......I just realiized how useful the ebook reader is...
Cybook is so tiny it can easily be placed in the hip pocket of a pair of jeans... the top doesn't even show.

Try doing that with the Sony or Kindle...not to mention Iliad.

Actually did that with the JetBook the other day... front pocket actually... when I need my hands free for other things.

Although I thought the Sony and the CyBook were pretty much the same size give or take a millimeter?

The screen is an identical size, but the CyBook is somewhat taller and narrower than the Sony. The CyBook is pretty well exactly the same width and height as a standard paperback book, which I'm sure is not a coincidence!

I found that site randomly on google earlier today. Just looked at it now, and they are going to be shipping from Friday. That was a change from earlier today. I ordered a Cybook from Bookeen at the start of April. Does this then in turn bode well for shipping from Bookeen I wonder...

I sure hope so. I'm starting to get the shakes....

Is that a Cybook in your pocket... or do you have a very strange anatomical deformity?

Any reason not to by from bookeen if you live in the US? Shipping is $33--but that takes the total up to $383, but NAEB it's $375 without shipping...

I don't know if you saw but there's another thread that says BooksOnBoard is offering a price break so it's $369 plus you get $20 in Rewards dollars (which is definitely cheaper than when I bought mine! Doesn't it always seem like whenever you buy something, the price goes down the next day?). Here's the link: Cybooks.
