Jeanne jc@eBookTechnologies.com (Edited: My friend wants to check with Jeanne if she is OK with sharing her last name and phone numbers, will repost if OK.) To my eyes the ETI-2 seems to be the same as the 1150. Here's their page: http://www.ebooktechnologies.com/devices.htm Here's a portion of the email he had with her which he shared with me: "Thank you for your order, . I’ll get it in process, and it will likely ship out on or around Wed March 26th. Order summary: one ETI-1 $400 , one ETI-2 with 64Mb Smart Media card $100, shipping and handling $7.50, total $507.50. It will ship via FedEx, and when it ships, I’ll get the tracking number, which I’ll forward to you via email. I’ll also see what I can do about including a small Compact Flash card for the ETI-1. Thank you! my contact info is below, and I’m in the pacific time zone." Nate, I've ordered a Windows laptop and will be asking for your help on the topic we discussed privately. OK? Fair trade?

Nice picture, we have this device in the wiki as the REB 1200. It is also discussed from time to time in the section of the ebookwise subforum. It has very knowledgeable people on the REB1200 which is the same as this unit.

If you hold it in your right hand... I like to switch hands because when I read and have the time I read for hours. One of the things I absolutely love about the ebookwise 1150 is the ease of switching hands/screen orientation.

Thats one of my gripes with ebooks in general - when will they get around to a standardised format? Atm it's like saying you can only listen to mp3 files if you have an ipod and if you want to listen to a .wav you need to get an IRiver player. |

Yeah I was worried about the whole "you can't read while it's charging issue" and "it's never completely turned off" with the e-ink readers. Not sure if they've fixed that now. I often read my ebookwise while charging and at my light settings I used to get about 14 hours of use out of a charge. Looks like my battery is getting old though, because lately it doesn't last that long anymore. No wonder after nearly three years of heavy use (prob average of 2-3 h per day). The main problem for me really is that I can't just plug the charger in here in the UK, I have to lug around this big converter. |

The "never switches off" thing is specific to the Sony. All the other eInk devices genuinely switch off. Even the Sony can be via a menu item.

Hmm that definitly makes buying a new ebookwise a serious option. Guess I'll have a look at the Sony reader once it's available here in the UK, just to see how much I'd love the e-ink screen and then decide between the Cybook and another ebookwise. |
