I'm very interested in Pocketbook IQ that will be avaiable from 1st. Nov. (Am I right?)
From my short research, it seems that there are several sellers of this gadget.

The sellers listed some features and the specification of Pocketbook IQ but it's quite vague to me. I know that they employed Android 2.0 OS (which will be updated to 2.2 Froyo in December) and it will not have 'Market' but allow third party apps installed. Actually, the hardware is almost same as that of Pandigital reader white. (I read this somewhere on the web.) It has tts functions and can read lots of document formats. The manufacturer emphasized the 'entertainment' feature of this gadget compared to Pandigital reader. You also explore web browser with it.
Now, I need more information to decide my purchase.
1. How does the touch screen work? (resistive? capacitive?)
2. The multimedia capability of IQ? (avi? mkv?, H264? any codec needed and limited on it?)
3. Is there any demo video on IQ? No clue about interface or speed..
4. Functionality as an ereader? (dictionaries (which langauges?), note-taking? PDF fucntions available on pocketbook 603...? )
5. Does this have a stylus pen? (no picture shows the stylus pen...)
I am also considering a galaxy tab as a 7inch tablet (including ereader functions). The price and functions of IQ are very attractive to me though the weight is somewhat heavy considering it is 7inch. Anybody who would share your information for me? Thanks for reading.
