NoteSlate is operated by own NS Firmware ver.0.7, which is just for basic drawings. There is also option for mp3 playback from headphones. In the future we will have option for NS Firmware 1.5 free upgrade of simple *.pdf text viewer / reader under Adobe license and we are preparing OCR recognition for written text. Part of NS Firmware will be published as open source for general usage.
Interesting... but why mp3 playback!? I would drop that. It just makes it more (unnecessarily) expensive. And I'm pretty sure I won't use it as I don't use the mp3 functionality on my PRS-505 or even on my ipad.
