Any paper manual or quick start guide included? online manual?
My 7" LCD Next1 is a great device, BUT, there's no touch screen....  |
I picked up one of these today as well.

Still like my Next1/Prestigio better. Although, the Hip Street is much lighter! Didn't come with a cover either
But it does come with earphones, buds, speakers, what ever they are called. Also comes with a wall-jack and standard mini USB cable that plugs into the wall-jack or the computer.
The screen is quite nice over all, pictures and text display are nice and crisp.
The refresh on page turns is slow; seems to draw the page from right to left.
There is no DRM support at all, stated in the manual.
I know you like to read PDF's, but from what I tried it totally sucked in the PDF viewing dept.
If there is a way to view an ePub TOC, I haven't found it! Seems to have the standard 6 or so font zoom sizes, and all the basic bookmark, auto play (page turn) options. Will be sold to my buddy who wants it to read comic books on as it displays pictures about the same as the Next1, just on a smaller screen.
The touch screen works quite well, and is nicely responsive. No need to push to hard, and doesn't react if it's brushed lightly; I would say it responds to the same pressure as it would take to flip a page of a regular book.
It does not have an auto-rotate function; You have to open the menu and select the "Switches anyway" option to rotate it in one direction only.
I did not try movies, music or the recording function.
I bought it basically for poops and giggles to see if it would compair to my Next1. In some ways it does, but in to many ways it doesn't.
Will make an OK basic reader for ePub and txt files. I will start searching about for a similar firmware from another device
