Hi together,
being new in eReading (havent got one) & living on a low budget, I am looking at the eReader Market with mixed feelings - most of my books are/have been free, and now (after a possible retirement of my printer) a device should cost me a few hundred to read through those books?
So obviously I started looking at the used market, without any big value drop - seems eReader Owners keep their loved companions.
Then, the next ovious, I looked at the cheapest device available on eBay, which was a few weeks ago, when the price for the following no-name device sold by EU or US based Sellers was at around ₤70, now it rose to ₤99, but it is still available from the base back in Asia for ₤67.
7-Inch-Ebook-Reader-Video-Player-MP3-MP5-FM-4GB-Ereader
A few weeks ago I was suspicious because of the confusing term "c-paper", which appears to be quite readable, though the little machine has a full colour tft display!
I did not find any video somewhere introducing the device (the french vid on uTube is another one) so I wrote the UK based seller for a few pics or vid, to see the screen in DAYLIGHT...well, nothing, they just send me the pdf manual, which might be interesting for us here in the forum, I uploaded the pdf here:

the Specs seem to be quite good:
Display: 7"c-paper LCD screen resolution:800*480
RAM: 256MB
Extension slot: SD card
Image : JPG,BMP
Text : TXT、EPUB、FB2、HTML、PDB、PDF、DOC formats
Music : MP3,WMA,OGG,FLAC,WAV,AAC,APE
Vedio : MKV、AVI、RM、RMVB、VOB、DAT、MP4、FLV、3GP with 720P
Now, some questions which would help us identify and judge the "alien" reader... :
- does anyone know the "real" name or manufacturer?
- has anyone tried it already?
Tempting on this price (the low one)...isnt it?
Cheers
