Does the PocketBook 301 really have "16 grayscale"? Most EB600-based devices use the Apollo controller and so only have 4 hardware grayscales.
How about the 302? Does it have 16 grayscale in hardware? |

I tried to find some info regarding pricing and it appears that the PocketBook 301+ is priced at US$275.00. Is that correct? If yes, can you tell us anything about shipping costs? In fact, I would be more interested in the 302, but I couldn't find anything on pricing here. |

You are correct about the pricing - $275 + shipping costs, which you choose from the options when you make an order - from USPS regular mail to Fedex Express next day delivery. |

One reason for getting this right is that otherwise a device like the 302 with more hardware grayscales (right?) does not sound like an improvement over the 301. |

Приветствую. Надеюсь, что англоязычные коллеги переведут мои посты.
Читать могу, а вот писать стесняюсь Quote:
В PDF для графики - 8 градаций (в современных моделях контроллер Epson). 16 градаций для фотографий. Двойное обновление экрана... Для текста и графики, решили, что слишком медленно. Кроме того используются алгоритмы растеризации для графики, поэтому реально градаций получается больше. P.S. Предупрежу, что не используется Engine от Adobe. Со временем оно появится. PDF и ePUB воспроизводятся посредственно (PDF хорошо, но медленно). Очень хорошо с поддержкой Русского, Украинского и прочих языков в формате FB2. Сейчас это основной формат. Интерфейс интуитивно очень понятный и удобный. Поддержка языков, это проблема шрифтов в основном. Переносы в формате TeX. Пока только встроенные. В общем, в основном, это устройство для русскоязычных читателей. |

Welcome to the board, JAW.
Please can you write in English since the majority here won't be able to understand anything you wrote. We are going to implement a dedicated forum section for our Russian friends, but not before we did some changes to our database charset. |
