Dont they normally release one in Sept / October ?
I got the new one last year, and I do like it, just wish they would bring back the free 3g with full (kind of) internet browsing like on the old keyboard one.
I still have the old keyboard one for whenever I go abroad, great for reading the news headlines, and sometimes for maps, etc.
I use the new one mainly at home, I dont read many books, but again just read the news and articles found on The Book Of The Web, really great before nodding off (unlike ipads, etc which keep me awake)
