Amazing!!!

A post by Robertb that has gone unreplied for over a day.

I know its disappointing that it will take another week, but at least having the price set and availability within a week seems worth comment.

Hey, Robertb. Has anyone at Astak considered offering something like a SquareTrade extended warrantee option with Astak EZReaders? Never heard of them before, but I'll sure be buying one with the next new ereader I buy.

Got a broken EZ PPro screen so am pondering the Plus as an option instead of spending the money to get the screen fixed. Now that I've had the 5" PPro for 8 months, I'm not seeing the 1" difference in size as a big deal. After all, even tho the PPro fits nicely into a jeans pocket, what fool would trust the "crush-proof" case to to be that invincible?

(No, I did NOT have it in a jeans pocket when the screen broke. Not sure how it broke.)

I agree with Robertb that the Plus price isn't really out of line with the price reductions in other brands, considering you get the case (and ear bugs to a minor degree) included -- and especially if it is as improved as he has stated repeatedly.

Of course, no wifi, but I haven't missed it yet. Perhaps when I see all the ebooks I want to buy at $7 or less, then maybe I will come to regret the lack of being able to bypass my computer to pull them off a dedicated store shelf with ease.

However, I suspect I will be buying my 5th new ereader by that time, and will be taking ice skating lessons in Hell, as well.
