I've joined the ranks of those waiting for repairs.

Hurray! Are you going to get a cover too now you have a "standard" Gen3 rather than an engineering sample? I'd highly recommend that you do.

Yes, both the replacement Cybooks arrived, THIS MORNING!

Yes, I now have a matte-finish Cybook. Yes, I get the joy of telling Fictionwise that I have Yet Another Mobipocket Processor ID (YAMPID) to add to my list - and could they please update all my previously-purchased ebooks to work with the new PID? GAWD! I just LOATHE DRM!!!

Yes, it arrived *SANS* softcover, 1GB SD card and earphones, (or USB charger) so I have to do all my charging via the compooter. Sigh

Oh well, I think I'll go look at some Dayplanner cases...

And our 100 customer units should be on their way shortly.

Derek -- Glad you got the replacements -- cool! Also, I was going to ask about the first NAEB order, seeing that Bookeen is sold out again -- thanks for assuring us we're in the loop!

Okay,

We have already sent the money to them for the first 100 units.

Ha! I am *supposed* to be getting the earphones, USB-charger, 1GB SD card and softcover 'later'. Given that I don't know *how* later that 'later' will be, I *already* went to Target and ordered a zippered case for $14.95!

Great to hear that you've got your replacement. Do try not to drop this one!

I hear you there!

What I'm doing is buying a travel portfolio from Target - cost a walloping $14.95. It's zippered, and is large enough that I'll probably be able to fit even the softcover+Cybook inside. Having seen the portfolio up close and person in a display case (Out of Stock), I think I can actually 'mount' the Cybook to the inner divider using stretchy bands...
