I've actually been following this product closely for some time. Unlike many of you, I'm thrilled at the idea of having a lightweight device with which I can add or remove, purchase & download books at my convenience. It is the same reason I bought an MP3 player way back when (Diamond Rio, anyone?) to eliminate the hassle of hording CD's in my backpack, etc. etc.
There's also one more reason why I'm rooting for this to succeed: E-Ink is one of the most exciting emerging technologies which will, provided enough support, replace/upgrade many of the common devices we use today. Has anyone actually SEEN this reader in person? It's simply stunning.
My take anyway. I'll be buying one soon.

for the time being, you can still see a copy of the page/image in question by searching google under "Microsoft security" and clicking on the cached link. Probably won't last long til the spider spins again, though. I'm not entirely sure the laptop is a Powerbook, but I guess it's close enough...
