Iliad Status Poll! - Page 2

CommanderROR · 07-06-2006, 02:37 PM

Unfortunately that information wasn't provided...angel ancin just didn't know the number by heart...^^

"Inviting US already. We placed that statement because we didn’t know when the problem with accepting USD was going to be sold.

Everybody that ordered before a certain date (that I do not know by heart) will receive the iliad in the same batch."

"Unfortunately not every body ordered. About 20 in your 69 ordered. But good work anyway ;-)

We are shipping. I will change order status tomorrow. UPS tracking number will be sent in a separate email from our logistics partner."

Can't say fairer than that?

i don't think there will be an 'issue' here. supporting drm on the iliad just means, that the device will be able to display drm'ed files (like pdfs you bought at amazon or mobipocket books).
it's a feature (and a good one, too) not something bad that restricts the iliad. it expands it's functionality.

right you are.
I don't like DRM, but if we have to live ina world where it exists i'd like a device that can handle it.

That was the intent of the message - not that I wanted a closed system but that I can read books from the library (which is on a different thread here....somewhere.....)

Not necessarily weird. Remember, the site doesn't 'officially' open until September. And isn't half of Europe on holiday this month (and the other half net month)?

Could be a lot of reasons to wait a few days before the final decision.
