I have posted a review of the eBookwise reader* along with a few photos.

At first I was kind of disappointed with the low res, half VGA screen, but that quickly changed when I started to read. My reading speed went way up because of the larger screen. I could sort of scan ahead. Also even though it is lower res, I find the 1150's serif font easier to read than the default sans-serif font on my PDA.

The camera makes the screen look green. It really does not look that way when viewing it with the naked eye.

*Note : a member has informed me that the link to the original review (hxxp://www. bowindex. com /et2/) now redirects to an installer for Antivirus 2009, which is actually a piece of malware masquerading as AntiVirus. So I have removed the link. I left the address in as a warning : do NOT visit this URL !!!
