Do the normal mentors have the same label on the back?
The Mentor is manufactured by Netronix in Taiwan. This particular model, EB600, has been rebranded by several companies, such as Foxit Reader, ViewSonic , Cybook Gen3 (400Mhz version),Cooler, PocketBook+,Kobo, Astaka Mentor, and PocketBook (UA, EU). All of them have exactly same button layout but slightly different body encapsulation. Some of them even look exactly identical except for the brand name printed on the front of the device. For example, the ViewSonic and Foxit reader sold on Newegg look exactly like Mentor.
The model number of Mentor Lite on Astak.com is EB-EB600WHT. Hence I guess the Mentor that I got should have this model number labled on the back instead of the "EB600E LITEBOOK".
