Smartq T7 very nice

Ordered The Smartq T7 a week ago from www.jiongtang.com. arrive a couple of days ago. So far the best reader I have ever had.
The first was a Rocket Ebook reader, then a Compac PDA, With ubook. The most successful up till now was the Siemens SL4 Simpad, again running ubook tried a couple of palms, and most recently a Smartq 7, running FBreader was pretty good. After couple of days of use, hands down winner is the T7 running FBreader.
It's lighter than the smartq t7 is slimmer, I find it very comfortable to hold.
the buttons are useful and of high quality. And android is a pleasure to use in the tablet format, much better than Ubuntu on the smartq 7. I actually like Android better on the T7 than I do on my Motorola Milestone, which I find kinda odd.
The T7's screen is very nice 800x600 the 600 makes a big difference. Also makes a big difference for browsing the web which on the T7 is a pleasant exercise.
When I unpacked the T7 it was running 2.1 revision 2.4 which was buggy as hell. upgraded to 2.1 revision 3 and what a change runs beautifully. It comes with ireader which I haven't even tried. First thing I did was go to google market and downloaded FBreader. Aldiko is very nice but I find FBreader faster and the interface cleaner. Google market, Gmail, and Calendar ship with the T7. It even comes with Terminal Emulator, I doubt I'll ever use it but I love the fact it's there, shows respect for there customers.
