Thus PB9X would not fit for some kind of user (students, scientist ... and so on)
IMHO
Pardon my saying it so bluntly - but just put a larger screen on a reader just doesn't cut it.
The software simply is only very basic on both devices and for a scientific workflow almost unusable.
I use a M92 parallel with a tablet.
Und noticing what would be possible on the software side simply hurts.
There is no way that PB and Onyx with their limited resources can develop something decent within time.
Wrong OS - plain and simple.
Interesting if Ectaco with Window CE(!!!) can pull it off ...
