Y'know how *some* yahoos are predicting the end of the Universe at the end of this Mayan calendar cycle? Yeah, well, the day *AFTER* is when the next Bookeen update will be released.

Bookeen made a reply to a comment on the french blog this morning, but no mention of any date.

Each quarter is 365/4=91.25 days. I predict it will be released the last day of the first quarter. The 91st day of the year is April 1st. I let you guess what kind of release it will be

If they don't post the FW tomorrow, can't somebody just ask them on their french blog? They seem to be responsive to comments there. Preferably someone who speaks French. It might help to disguise the question, something along the lines of "when can we expect the epub support on cybooks and please be more specific than 'in the new FW update' " or whatever you see fit that could give us some specifics about the release date.

It seems they are still on business, they posted at least two pieces in the French blog:

A reply about the LIT support:
The epub and adobe pdf support will work on the Cybook Gen3 and on the different Bookeen products. We don't support LIT files yet, and this extension is not in our priorities at the moment. However, we do as much as we can to satisfy our users' demands.

Cybook Gen3 available at Cultura:
Apparently the Cybook will be available at the Cultura shops, and there's an offer of a 2GB card with 100 titles...

No firmware today, my hope has gone away
The cybook stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No firmware today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
...

There's still four to five hours to go! Plenty of time for a release on the web site.

1st quarter they said, 1st quarter it'll be -- just you watch.

Yeah, sure. They're going to release it one minute before midnight and throw a huge party under the Eiffel tower on top of that, with strippers and all.
