my personal review of asus dr-900

so I had the opportunity to play a bit with this device and I can say some things..

I'm an irex dr800 owner and the first thing I noticed strange is the screen ..
the screen is really plastic on the top, differently by e-ink ones that is glass-made usually..
it really seems the same plastic of the borders..
and the background color that is really gray..
much more gray than the dr800 for instance..
the device should do various things.. the most important one being to let read some documents..
it has a fixed zoom system..
I mean you can chose between 100% 125% etc..
or fit width, or fit screen..
unforunately when you display less than a page on the screen they did the usual big mistake that if you press to go on you show the next page top not the rest of the current page
in other words zoom is not usable at all.. or maybe if you pan with the fingers.. didn't test
the capacitatative screen does not work very well
it misses some touches etc..
the characters of a pdf file are showed in a very strange manner..
in the way that marcor showed in his video..
on the positive side I have to say that turning page (but only when not zoomed) is quite fast..

..now I have to go by now..
.. to be continued later..
