We have to wait until next week's start of the Frankfurt Book Fair, where PocketBook wants to announce release date and pricing.

Luigino, we will begin presales right after the book fair for a special price. Price will be really good. The PB902 will be available before the end of this month probably.

Hello mtravellerh,

lemme suppose you know that Pocketbook 902 Pro...as you know, will it have good PDF support? what about images like manga or papers?... and once it'll be on sale, will it be sold also in Europe?...

Thanks
Ciao
Luigi

Does that also apply to the PB903? I am really interested in the 903 because of the Wacom screen for my university work.

I would love to see how the PB903 deals with big DjVu/PDF files (especially the like created from images; for instance papers you can find from the 80s are like that).

Speaking of - is there a chance to get student rebates? Or are you guys maybe talking to universities to offer (discouncted) readers via them? Think you could get quite a many students interested that way...

Yes, the same is true for the 903

I'm really interested in this...
...with one proviso:
How compatible is the 902 with the existing Pocketbook ecosystem? Apps, dics, themes, etc...

A lot of the value I derive from my PB360 comes from these add-ons that help me customize it exactly to my taste. Without things like FBreader180, the dictionaries and themes and even the hacked Adobeviewer, the 902 would have to prove itself on its own terms rather than be an automatic buy. It's not just the hardware...

Inquiring minds want to know.

However, dictionaries, which use a format wholly incompatible with everything else (it even shares the extension name with a different thing) need to be rethought and/or fly away. StarDict is OS!

If they want to *add* support for other dic formats (like the long-promised Lingvo) I'd have no problem. But the existing format has a decent supply of free dictionaries so dropping it would be a minus.

About the 902's model is there somewhere a video where it shows operativity while reading a PDF?...

Thanks
