The Cruz Reader from Velocity Micro started shipping earlier this month and the preliminary Cruz Reader reviews are not good.

Beam N Read LED Reading Lights Review
A few weeks ago I was given a pair of Beam N Read LED lights to review as reading lights for ebook readers. Since I don’t care for the way clip-on reading lights change the balance of an ereader, I thought it would be interesting to see how well the Beam N Read lights work. […]
