Need assistance with Fuji Labs eReader
Is there anyone here who is familiar with the Fuji Labs B3260 color eReader? I received it last week and it says it supports PDF, TXT, EPUB, CHM, UMD, PDB, HTM, HTML but when I upload the books it prompts "can't open". First I uploaded them as Epubs, then I tried PDF and nothing. Whats the trick to this? I also put them in different locations in the device to see perhaps it mattered but still can't open.

Wow, I haven't been on O for a while, but their erader prices are ridiculous!

Sorry, OP, I don't have any advice either, other than, if you can still return it, you may want to consider it.

You should see what a search for "ebook" lists at Rakuten for the US.

Wow! Feels like a different decade over there! Ebook readers are in a category called "PDAs" - they still sell Palms and iPaqs. Just wow!

Can you still sell Palms and iPaqs new without them being like 10 year old stock? Maybe they just never removed them from their site. I've often seen this with small stores in the Netherlands, who set up a website somewhere in 1998, put their inventory on, and then update it once every 5 years (if they update at all).

Indeed, a different decade...

The closest thing to an ebook there is a pbook on how to get your self-pub title into Kindle.

Welcome to MobileRead, and I'm sorry you've had such a disappointing start to ereading. The only other suggestion I have is to wonder whether the reader can handle DRM, or if it does whether you've registered with Adobe.

Thank you everyone. Actually I won it at an auction for $32. I liked the look of it and all I wanted it for was to upload loads of epub books that were given to me instead of carrying my IPad around (don't want to lose it). I've contacted the previous owner who said that the folder where I drag the books is what matters but he can't remember what folders. Anyways, thanks again.
