Why do I feel like this is a lot to pay for a non-color limited device. My PDA works just as well for books, and why would i want to read COMICS not in color??
No it doesn't. I'm so sick of people coming onto these threads claiming that their PDA is better. I have an iPaq 4700 that has a 4" VGA screen and it doesn't come close to this thing in res and more importantly battery life. NO pda on the market can touch and e-ink device an d anyone who says otherwise has never seen a GOOD e-ink device. Period. End of discussion. That being said this thing is fugly. The damn logo plastered on the front just kills the design of it.
I agree with the above comment. Apparently they (Bookeen)ignored the poll the took to help determine the final cosmetic looks of the device; in other words, logo placement, et. al. Why bother polling people if you're going to ignore the results? Secondly, too bad $ony beat them to the punch, it's going to be difficult for the to compete now that Sony's had the new PRS-505 on the market for almost a month longer.
