That's no fun! The options are deliberately chosen so that you have to guess a particular range of dates, not just a general "anytime before xxx"
I see we have no takers for this weekend (yet!). And a rather pessimistic bunch going for Never. And the vast majority (over 70%) don't think they'll make it before the end of March. I hope they're wrong. We shall see. |

Logically, one cannot vote for "never", because one cannot know that they will "never" release it. It could be 10,000 years in the future, but that is not "never".

Of course you can now if certain things happens. For example if Bookeen stops to exist then it will never happen.

The poll simply says "The next CyBook firmware will appear...". It does not specify that Bookeen will release it .

On the point of who might release the firmware, although the poll title doesn't name Bookeen, the initial post does, and just to avoid confusion, I'll state hear that I meant an official, downloadable, installable firmware update that works with all currently release CyBook Gen 3 models - the 64MB, 512MB, 200MHz and 400MHz - release by Bookeen. |

So - not "This weekend".
If the wisdom of crowds is true, we won't see it this week either (although that's what I voted for), but we should see it before the end of April. :-) |

Well, last Monday, the person from bookeen said "next week".
And, according to the french definition of "next week", that is Monday 23rd to Sunday 29th March , admitting everything goes as planned. |
