M92 Shopping Choices
I'm in the USA and I've committed to buying the M92.
I'm torn between buying the Ars Techa from Amazon $299.00, free case and 2 day delivery, or buying the booxter version from Germany. I'd prefer the booxter software, but . . . Most important to me, after pdf are the cbr and cbz support. I can't find any reference to how well each one handles comics so that is an issue. Secondly, is it ossible to root the Ars Techa version and run the booxter firmware? Thanks |

Yes it's possible to root artatech and run booxter fw. (search forum ) . Base for booxtor and artatech is the same , diffrence is in plugins and addins.
artatech - voice TTS Ivona booxtor - voice TTS Acappela ( for now test version only ) + artatech artatech - cloud manager , book shopping from device ( I saw only polish site ) booxtor - - ( but you can use cloud addin from artatech details on forum ) + artatech artatech - crypted fw booxtor - open + booxtor booxtor - faster and more frequently updates and fixes + booxtor with comics - I don't know - but should not be diffrences between artatech and booxtor with the same firmware generation. |

As for cbr/cbz support, both firmware have at least an annoying very old bug.
If you exit from reading a cbr/cbz file, it does not remember the page for next opening. This thing, that should be very easy to fix, bother me enough to stop me from using the M92 for comics purpose. I put some hope in Seaniko7's Obuntu effort for having a proper linux distribution for the M92. That could end up in simply using reading softwares for linux. |
