Hello ladies & gents,

I was a proud owner of an RCA REB1100, logged many hundreds of hours on it until the day I lost it. It just so happened that the week prior, RCA discontinued the product.

So I just stumbled upon this eBookWise device today, and my heart lept! It was my REB1100, rebadged! But the more I read, the more I think that it might be more complicated than that.

So, I have a couple questions I hope someone can answer for me.

1.) Would the eBook Librarian software that came with my RCA be able to do conversion and load books onto the device?

2.) Does the eBookWise device have dictionary lookup capabilities like the RCA did? If you had a specific dictionary ebook loaded onto the device, you could tap any word and get an immediate definition.

I appreciate any information on the likenesses or differences between the REB1100 and the eBookWise 1150 that anyone can supply.

Thanks in advance,
-p
