MultitasKING is working flawless. Very fast. Very simple 2 use. Very powerful.

Small productions means high prices. High prices lead to low sales. Low sales - means not enough money for additional experiments with alternative reading devices.

I believe something like that also killed the Kindle DX.
While I don't believe hardware improvements can achieve much better sales, I belive in better software and reliability.

Though I think premium ereader will never be a lucrative market, nevermind which improvements are made. Most of us bought an ereader due to eye strain and other concerns on LCD Screens. We (here especially in Onyx Forum) are a minority.

I think the majority is buying ereader because they are there, cheap and maybe useful for them. No one of them would buy an ereader with super pdf functionality, because they think they can do the same on a tablet.

I like Onyx. I like those improvements. I appriciate your effort Booxtor.
I don't like my suggestion, like I don't like monkey:
You could subsidize the reader by implementing advertisements to make them cheaper. (ala amazon)
But maybe it helps ...
