Basically if buying S/H so as to register and use Download and transfer these models are POINTLESS. No azw3, only mobi/prc and even the DX/DXG are pretty useless for PDF

I have one, and apart from no front light and no touch it's not bad for a 6″ 800 x 600 eink. Far better than the slightly later DXG (B009).
Note the PW1 has a cruelly small amount of storage.
