Pre-Orders for the Pocket Book 302?

luqmaninbmore · 02-02-2010, 08:11 AM

Any word on when pre-orders will begin for the PB302? Or what the price will be? It's supposed to available in March, so wouldn't pre-orders begin a month early?

luqmaninbmore, my website is almost ready for pre-orders, they will really start either this weekend or Monday (anyway, weekend will be all football only

)))
The price is 339.99 for the "Standard" accessories package, the availability - definitely March, beginning of, or even February.
Quite possibly that the first couple of dozens will be sold w/o a retail box - that's kinda tradition here with PocketBook in US))))

I just though - maybe this is worth a separate thread?

I'll post it.

What comes in the Standard accessories package? Will the device be sold without accessories at a lower price?

Will those of us in Europe be able to pre-order it from a European site?

I am eagerly waiting for the next PocketBook 360 but will certainly be interested in the other pocketbook products as well.

I'll certainly be interested to see how the 302 compares with the Sony Touch 6" reader.

The Standard package will include the device itself, the leather cover and the USB cord.
The wall charger, 2G MicroSD memory card, earphones and a wrist lash will be added to it to make a Comfort accessories package.

It may just have been a rumor but I did read somewhere that there would be. I certainly hope so

With our R&D department, everything is in the works in any moment

Ask folks working on the FBReader to include codepage 1250 to the list of codepages that I can select in FBReader.
Quote from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1250

Quote:

Windows-1250 is a code page used under Microsoft Windows to represent texts in Central European and Eastern European languages that use Latin script, such as Polish, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovene, Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian (Latin script), Romanian and Albanian. It may also be used with the German language; German-language texts encoded with Windows-1250 and Windows-1252 are identical.

Now that the PocketBook is being sold in the entire Europe it might benefit from more codepage choices besides Latin1, Russian, Ukrainian and Hebrew ;-)
