Arta Tech lowered their price for M92 dramatically two weeks ago and started to advertise here with their "naked device" price. Long time before we already offered Onyx ereaders to fair prices. Our wholesale prices keep to be unchanged and moreover increased in last months.. We had finaly to pay Onyx in USD in time where Euro lost more than 10% to USD. Thus we had to pay 10% more for last batches, but we keep the prices in store stable. Our price politics is actually quite transparent. For less solvent buyers we offer quantity discounts, student discounts and in the course of several months you could get shipping free worldwide. Privately I spend a lot of my time supporting Onyx users in forums. But now I see folks here talking about whose store offers cheaper products now. I don't know. Perhaps other competitors are right. Why bother when you can just buy a good SEO stated and already build-up domain, take a build-up product offer slightly lower prices than competitors and spent more time with enjoying life and family. Shall someone else care about Onyx users? I don’t think so. I really feel responsible for products, sold in our store. This is why we don’t offer low cost stuff. I have a dream to be a part of creation process of products, which could fit to all needs of professional users. I really appreciate those customers, whose decision is based not only on idea to look for discounters, but also means to support and give thanks with their purchase to a seller, who proves with his activity , that he is really dedicated to his customers.

Dear Booxtor,
It seems you are missing my point. I do want the cheapest possible deal with the best possible service (aren't we all)? In my last message, I am showing that the actual price difference between Artatech and yours is 11 Euros for me. This is 11/349=3% in the best case. For this small difference, warranty and support is (in general) more important. Hence, my question at the end of my last message: Am I missing something (in terms of support, features, warranty, etc)? Regards. |

I know and I really appreciate that and I'm sure there are more here who appreciate your efforts. Keep up the good work and ceaseless contribution!
@crt: Yes, you are missing something. By buying at Booxtor's you won't only get a brilliant service, but you will also support (IMHO) one of the main contributors to Onyx development. Your investment might even have indirect influence on the continuity of product support for the Boox brand. And you are missing that improved text-to-speech is worked on for buyers of Booxtor's shop, as well. It might take some more weeks/months, but finally I don't think the difference will end up being significant. |

For a device like the M92, my main criterion is not the price but the support available. It's not a perfect device, it must be improved and supported. In a long term vision, it's most important to support all people ready to give some help to the developpement or the community. I like the devices "open", I know that the M92 is not fully "open source". The SDK is available, some users maid some usefull tools, if your are enough good, a new firmware could be done - on a device not locked by the buyer. The M92 must be protected, for other devices I've lost time to search a cover/protection. I prefer an complete offer of good quality. The Booxtor's solution is good for me. The price isn't the single criterion. Last edited by Randy11; 10-01-2012 at 03:00 AM. |

Well, I discussed the matter with a colleague (having in mind the offer when buying to machines) and he pointed out something:
For academic purposes it is useful to have more than one documents (and often the browser) open. If I am not mistaken, M92 can only have one document or the browser open at any moment. The only 9.7'' e-reader that can do this is PocketBook Pro 912, although I do not know the exact effectiveness in practice (how easy and fast it is to switch between open documents). So this is a very essential question we have for M92. Can someone clarify this point? Thank you in advance. |

Well at this point you can have open only one "thing" (Web, notepad, document reader) and within that to have open only one "thing". (webpage, scribling doc, text doc).
Onyx works on multitasking and also work is done to port android (natively allowing multitasking). But if and when it will be released... Who knows?... So, the question is whether take a risk and buy M92 now, or buy PB 912 now or wait until M92 will aquire multitasking. I decided not to wait and buy M92, last year. M92 has better hardware to PB 912. Besides better workflow (read: interface allowing to work in effitient way), I miss also multitasking. But still, I am happy with M92. There is not better 10" e-ink for my type of use (reading pdf and scribling in it). |

Based on your support on this forum, I just ordered an Onyx Boox M92 Black from your store. Even though I can get it cheaper from a US based store, I don't mind paying a little more to support you. Thanks, #101775 |

Hi, I am also intrested in m92.
I need to know whether the Arta one will receive 1.8 features and Android or not. To me, those difference worth even more than a hundred euros |

Hi everybody.
I'm new to this forum but I've been following it for about half a year. I was looking for a large screen ebook and after all this time I think M92 is the one I need. Perhaps the most difficult decision has been, not to decide which model is best for me, but where to buy it . Now, I 'm pretty sure I will buy it in eReader Store (ordering in few minutes) so thanks to all of of you that share this useful information with the rest of the people. |
