Hi Everybody,

I'm an Aussie based in Beijing. Just bought a Hanlin eReader V3.

Sort of happy with it.

Hope I can figure out a way to change the default font. It's a sanserif font very similar to Arial.

The V3 is also heavier than paperbacks. But I'm sure I'll get used to that pretty quickly.

Getting books in English is tricky in China and I love to read when I travel. So being able to take loads of books with me is exciting.

I have never read a full book on my computer and the eInk screen on the V3 does nearly live up to expectations. Still not as pleasant as reading a regular paperback though.

Mobile Read is blocked by the Great Firewall of China tonight; and I have to go through a proxy to get here. I wonder why?

This is a good looking forum. Thanks to the crew who set it up.
