Hi you all!
Greetings from sunny Greece!
I received my M90 (my first e-reader!) 20 days ago! I took it with me on my short
holidays under the bright & warm Greek sun.
I would like to share some of my observations with all of you & particularly with Onyx guys!
1. The pearl e-ink really rocks!! No problem under the Greek sun! Not even under direct midday sunlight!
2. The IR sensor though, went .... bananas!!!!!
It kept turning pages by itself! I just looked at it and it turned the pages back & forth! It did that even under the shade of a beach umbrella! Well guys, I do believe that something must be done a.s.a.p. I kept loosing the page
3. Internet wi-fi connections is simply awful!!!
If and when I managed to connect to a nearby network (with very strong signal), the message I got while trying to get to google home page was that "host not found". I used my Nokia N95 mobile and there! I connected!!!
4. Battery life! 8,000 page turns?!?!?!?! Come on guys! Unless I'm doing something wrong, I had to charge it almost every 2.5 to 3 days, while using it for approximately 3 hours daily (Greek beaches and sea do not allow for more time to ... read!)
Am I doing something wrong with energy management?
5. Yeap, I've seen it too! There is a blind spot where the speaker is! What are we going to do about it? By the way, talking about the speaker function; I hear nothing! (Maybe some very very very very, low whispers) unless I use earphones! Is this the wat it is supposed to work?
Other than the above, so far, I have not to add.
All in all, I am quite pleased with the device, despite the fact that it is my first! I have read about 4 books (of approx 400 pages each) so far and my opinion is quite positive!
I just wish that the above issues would be resolved!
By the way, the "technician" who mentioned that the screen auto rotates should join me every time i need to turn the screen 90 degrees and then I have to make a whole circle (360) in order to bring it back! How clever is that? If I am doing something wrong, please advice!
