Good E-Reader Store Selling Test Units Without Really Telling Customers They're Used
MR user Question Mark points out the details in this thread, but I thought this warrants a more visible warning.
The Tweedles tell you in a blogpost that they are selling review units, but if you only look at their store, you will never know. I am almost tempted to call that a scam. At least potential customers should be aware who they are dealing with. |

Given how the site started (selling access to pirated books), nothing these guys do surprises me much.

The ongoing and full discussion on this issue, located in the other thread, is sufficient.
