We are presenting our recent developments to measure the electron antineutrino mass by studying the 187Re (beta) - spectrum end-point with high resolution thermal detectors. We will discuss the preliminary results of an array of 8 bolometers made up of AgReO4 absorbers (2.309 mg of total mass corresponding to a total 187Re active mass of about 0.905 mg of with an expected (beta) total rate of about 1.3 Hz). Their risetime of 0.7 - 1.2 ms together with their energy resolution, ranging between 21 eV and 26 eV at 1.5 KeV, should allow to set a limit of about 10 - 12 eV after one year of real time measurements.
