THE FIRST EVER JETBOOK VIDEO REVIEW

soooooo, i manned up and made an English jetBook video review

got a couple of my pro friends with their cameras to shoot the angles and even do the editing for me.

hope this helps to visually see the functions the jetBook has and hope to hear some comments!

disclaimer: (this is the first video review i have ever done in my life lol)

I appreciate the review, but there were too many closeups of your thumb clicking the buttons. It would've been really nice to actually see how the dictionary functions and how thorough the definitions are. But all we got was a thumb clicking away...

Thanks for the review. The next time you might try and hold it still longer. It was a little like a flag waving the breeze. You gave a good overview of how it works. Were you trying to avoid technical stuff?

Good introduction to the jetBook! I think it's difficult for people to realize just how simple it is to use. You did a good job of demonstrating the ease-of-use.

i tried to avoid the technical stuff and mainly focused on the ease of use since going in-depth about the functions would make it a 10+ minute video. keeping it under 6 minutes was my actual goal.

One think I thought was really nice about the Jetbook firmware was the file manager built right onto the device. You stated you can hook it to your PC and create folders... you can also create folder right from the device and move books (files) around without needing to connect to a PC.

This could be nice for people that like to move a book to a "Read" folder after they are done with it, which keeping it on the reader.
