Astak Pocket Pro vs. other Hanlin V5 readers

Hi,

Looking to buy my first ereader and came across the BeBook mini and also the Astak equivalent. As an American, buying the Astak would make for lower shipping and warranty repair costs. Is there a reason to prefer the BeBook ?

I'm also considering the Sony PRS-300 and Jetbook.

TIA

In the US, definitely buy the Pocket Pro. It is the same hardware and the Pocket Pro comes with a leather cover. There might be minor differences between the firmwares, but probably not and in any case you can load the BeBook firmware on the Pocket Pro if you want.
