You can still carry up to 1000 books in a mere 150 grams, or up to 8000 more by adding an optional microSD card; enough to carry your entire library in the palm of your hand. The accelerometer means it’s equally comfortable in your left hand or your right hand, and lets you switch between portrait and landscape displays automatically. You still have the choice of 12 different font sizes, to suit everyone’s eyes and preferences. And it’s still compatible with most major online booksellers so you can easily load it up with any of the millions of classics available or recent best-sellers in a couple of clicks.<br /><br />Now, improved battery life means up to 15 days or 8500 pages on a single charge. <strong>Go from “zero” to “reading” in 1 second</strong> thanks to the new sleep mode, and start reading instantly whenever you have a few minutes available; no more waiting 15 seconds to get back to your book. And of course, a bouquet of beautiful new colours to choose from. <strong>In addition to the classic white, on May 7, the new-look, enriched-feature Cybook Opus will come in 7 colours: black, silver, blue, red, pink, green and orange.</strong><br /><br />What’s your favourite colour?<br /><br />Happy reading!<br />The Bookeen Team<br /><br />The discussion continues on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Bookeen">facebook</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/BookeenTeam">twitter</a>.Bookeenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05588559754052211464noreply@blogger.com19tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8240948488798802470.post-5035489363996376122010-04-23T08:19:00.000-07:002010-04-23T08:31:45.298-07:00Roses and books<em>This article was first posted on MobileRead.com forums, it is re-posted here, slightly edited, with permission.<br /></em><br />Today is World Book Day. This international event organised by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) got its start in Spain in 1923, where the commemoration of Miguel de Cervantes' death by local booksellers combined with the celebration of St. George's Day to create a new traditional exchange of flowers and... books.<br /><br />The intent of World Book Day according to the UNESCO:<br /><strong>By celebrating this Day throughout the world, UNESCO seeks to promote reading, publishing and the protection of intellectual property through copyright.</strong><br /><br />According to <a href="http://portal.unesco.org/culture/en/ev.php-URL_ID=5125&URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201.html">the official site</a>:<br /><br /><blockquote>23 April: a symbolic date for world literature for on this date and in the same year of 1616, Cervantes, Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega all died. It is also the date of birth or death of other prominent authors such as Maurice Druon, K.Laxness, Vladimir Nabokov, Josep Pla and Manuel Mejía Vallejo. It was a natural choice for UNESCO's General Conference to pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors on this date, encouraging everyone, and in particular young people, to discover the pleasure of reading and gain a renewed respect for the irreplaceable contributions of those who have furthered the social and cultural progress of humanity.<br /><br />The idea for this celebration originated in Catalonia where on 23 April, Saint George's Day, a rose is traditionally given as a gift for each book sold. The success of the World Book and CopyrightDay will depend primarily on the support received from all parties concerned (authors, publishers, teachers, librarians, public and private institutions, humanitarian NGOs and the mass media), who have been mobilized in each country by UNESCO National Commissions, UNESCO Clubs, Centres and Associations, Associated Schools and Libraries, and by all those who feel motivated to work together in this world celebration of books and authors.</blockquote><br /><br />Last year a member of the MobileRead forum proposed we try to think of ways to make ebooks part of the celebration: for example, going back to the original Catalan tradition of booksellers offering a rose for every book purchased, and florists giving a small book with every rose purchased, and men offering roses to women who reply with a book, he proposes that we might give virtual roses for ebook purchases, or perhaps we could send e-roses to authors we appreciate (provided their work is available as an ebook, obviously!). Sounds like a nice idea to me!<br /><br />Here is one way of making a virtual rose that you can send in an email or on twitter:<br /><span style="color:#009900;">--'--,--</span><span style="color:#cc0000;">{@</span><br /><br />Feel free to share in the comments if you have any other suggestions.<br /><br />How will you and your Cybook celebrate World Book Day?

Against all odds, we have released our Cybook Gen3 almost on time and the device has met a smashing success. As already announced several times before, we have been overwhelmed by the demand and we all thank you for this success. The first reactions of our customers and professionals have been great obtaining a 9 out of 10 from TrustedReviews with a nice "Of all the dedicated eBook readers I've seen this is definitely the best".<br /><br />We have also noted all the remarks of our first customers : folder support, delete key, better sound interface and our dev team is already working on them. Please note that, even if we are not very responsive, we always read all your emails and take in account your feedback.<br /><br />Since our creation in 2003, Bookeen has always tried to keep in touch with its customers and to offer a reactive and efficient customer support. Concerning this part of our job, we clearly have not met our quality imperatives for the Cybook Gen3 release. We are now making all the necessary decisions to have a customer support department running properly.<br /><br />In parrallel of our online store, a reseller network has grown much faster than expected and right now almost <a href="http://www.bookeen.com/shop/ebook-resellers.aspx">11 stores </a>(both web and brick and mortar) are selling the Cybook Gen3. This network is increasing every week and we invite everyone interested by selling the Cybook to get in touch with us.<br /><br />We have also been part of several great initiatives like the <a href="http://www.naebllc.com/">NAEB buyer's club </a>and the <a href="http://www.cluster21.com/blog/ebook">Cluster21 publisher pack</a>. I will describe these two initiatives in future posts.<br /><br />We will definitely be more active on this blog and give you fresh news about Bookeen and Cybook Gen3 in the next few days.<br /><br />Thanks again.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Michael<br /><br />PS: The Cybook is currently in stock. Shipments have restarted, the current average delay between order and shipment is 5 business days<br /><center><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EsR2pgWkZzs&rel=" width="425" height="355" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"></embed><br /></center>Bookeenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05588559754052211464noreply@blogger.com30
