Just as a general observation: the ebook reader matrix must be missing quite a few 'generic' models by now..

If I was in the market for another reader I would wait for a few reviews, but on paper it looks like a reliable device. Kogan have some interesting products on their website, notably the TV's. Interesting the price of some of the LCDs are very low considering some of them run Samsung or LG panels (equivalent LG or Samsung branded TV would cost a reasonable dollar more).

For $189 and free shipping it is damn hard to beat. Only concern would be lack of future support. Kogan came out with a cheap netbook 18 months ago but it seems they have failed to continue that line of product. Hate for the same to happen with the ereader. Time will tell.
