Hello Robert,

I work in a company one of whose activities is state-of-the-art Management Education. Right now, we are looking for a reader device that we could use as an academic tool (for textbooks and notes taking) and we had almost decided on iRex iLiad, when I found info about Astak Mentor.

I was pleased to find an A4 reader device at such an affordable price, and I would like to have more information about it, so that we can consider issuing Mentor to students this academic year (starts in July).

I am listing out a few doubts, and I request you to clarify them:

1. Does Mentor have plastic screen?
2. Does it support multi-folder management?
3. Does it have note-taking facility with stylus/touchscreen keyboard (touchscreen keyboard is preferable)?
4. What is the charge retention time with stylus and WiFi?
5. Can Mentor be shipped to India?
6. From when will A4 Mentor be commercially available?

4GB embedded is wonderful! Will this have internal speaker?

Please reply. you can contact me at: renushan@vestalcorp.com

Glad to see a great device at a competitive price. Good luck to Astak!

Best Regards,

Renu.
