What’s really grabs me is that the battery charge will last a whole month. WTH!

It’s said that the device will support a beta WebKit-based browser as well. Does that mean we’ll be able to access Facebook and be treated with the same layout that we’re used to seeing on a computer via a web browser? I can’t say that it’s been much of a problem using Facebook, Twitter and even HubPages once you get used to the more textual mobile format, and HubPages actually presents quite readably, but I won’t be complaining about a visual improvement. It will probably see more people purchase the device, especially since the Whispernet wireless internet access is free. A no cost option that really sealed the deal for me before I made the final decision after much deliberation to buy the device.

Seeing that I just got mine a little over three weeks ago I think I’ll have to wait longer than 27th August before purchasing a new one. Maybe as a Christmas present. And I’ll hand my ‘old’ one over to my father inlaw, who is an avid book reader. Not sure what he’ll make of the electronic version, but I’m sure he’ll appreciate the ability to enlarge the font size.

The same low price of $189 but also a WiFi only version that’s a super low $139. But for the benefit of the free Whispernet access (which works for me out in rural Australia) it’s worth shelling out the extra $50.
