Wired Cool-er e-reader review. In summary they hate it

Snippet below.

WIRED Candy colors. Initial cost of admission cheaper than competitors. Support for open formats. Battery life is good for a fortnight.

TIRED Flimsy buttons. Plasticky-construction. Overpriced e-book store. Tacky user interfaced. No auto-sleep mode. No WiFi. No access to newspapers, blogs or magazines.

I don't know about you but I do not view wi-fi on an dedicated e-reader as a deal-breaker. Ditto blogs / newspapers

If wireless was a deal breaker I wouldn't own a Sony. I will agree with the overpriced store in their review, I did visit it and thought, "What the heck are they smoking over there."
