I am delighted that you like them. They look ok on a computer screen, but they really look fantastic on the PB360. The Cantarell font family is also excellent.
IMNSHO, the typeface is *far* more important than any other parameter, (even screen type) in defining how pleasant (or not) it is to read on an ebook reader Cheers! |

I already posted it on my website as the new product. Please, check PocketBook 360 PLUS.
It will be on the pre-order for 5-7 days more, I hope that on Monday, May 2, it should be already delivered to me and it will be available for shipping then. |

hip hip hurrah! Does the PB360+ use the new Pearl Screen? On your website, you just mention this: "Display 5" E Ink® Vizplex" for the PB360+. I cannot wait now, luckily, I have just sold the Sony 350.

Umm, I love the customizing options and formfactor of the PB360, I do Not want a touch screen, and still I would like the 'clicks' to be quieter. I know this is possible to do as Bookeen managed to reduce the 'click' on the 2nd version of the Gen3. It made it quieter when reading in bed. Not liking the loud clicking isn't the same as wanting a touch screen.

PocketBook 360 Plus is now available from our site. Upgraded processor and more internal memory plus wifi. It is not a pearl display. Price starts at $149
Regular non-plussed 360 model is reduced to $129/$149 with Accessory package(wall charger, lanyard, 2GB SD card). |

Thank you for quick answer.
Please do not forget, we are eagerly waiting for the first review. So, please, post comparison with the old model as soon as you get the chance to unpack the first unit. The firmware *must* be different, because old one doesn't support WiFi. Is the new firmware related to the 602 ... 903 model? |
