Has anyone tried Color Lux
Hello,
I have seen a review of it by goodereader (which was negative) yet I wish someone here who have tried this device themselves to give us a review of it. For example: how long does it take to open a webpage? Thanks. |

Thanks so much MartinZ!
Goodereader said it takes 6 minutes to open a webpage. Is this true? Thanks again. |

I'm wondering from your questions whether you are looking for a tablet with colour e-ink screen? If so, you'd probably be disappointed with the PocketBook device. It is a low powered reading device, and expecting more from it is going to lead to frustration.

I know that an e-ink screen is different from a tablet, yet I'm looking for an e-ink screen that's not "too awful".

With k2pdfopt we can automatically change a pdf page size and resolution to exactly match those of our e-reader's screen and at the same time crop empty margins and turn it to landscape and also change complex pdf commpression(if there is one involved) to bitmaps(OCR layer will be retained), so that e-reader's processor just have to show already perfectly tailored page without the need for much computation or memory resources on its part. We can also use it to reflow A4 sized pdf to fit our 6", 8" or 10" device (both scanned pdf images(bitmaps) or textual pdfs(vectors)) . http://www.willus.com/k2pdfopt/ Last edited by markom; 04-14-2014 at 09:29 AM. |

There seem to be some left on stock and so they ask you to call for an offer. No idea, whether that's true. But it (=not actively selling anymore) could make sense, given some of the extremely harsh reviews... |

Hi,
I found this with a price : http://boutique.pocketbook.fr/index....roller=product It seems that you can buy it because there is some device in stock. |
