IIRC the current schedule is June (probably closer to the end of month because of the dust-up with Bookeen and some related slips in the schedule).

It isn't something I need, but I really like the design... Thanks for linking the extra photos Igorsk... Though I can just predict new user threads, "Anyone know where I can find a new cover piece? I can't find mine..."

Yes, it is.

I WANT ONE.

I might even travel to Ukraine just to get one.
I was expecting something in sub$200 range. So far the price estimation is about $250

I am sure you will not need to actually do it (unless you just want to travel to Ukraine for some reason). They will gladly ship it to wherever you happen to live.

As far as the quality of design. We will see once the device has been put into production and manufactured, and the first users start playing with it. As far as I know the device enclosure was designed in Ukraine, even though it will be manufactured by Netronix. The PocketBook team was trying to borrow the best ideas from the known ebook reader designs, primarily from REB1100, which still has a major following in Russian speaking world.
