It will read PDFs and nothing else. So this device needs to be hacked to be more useful. At this price, how many hackers will own it ? Interested customers might have to offer a few DPT-S1 to motivated programmers. Personally I would like this reader to be made compatible with any kind of text file, but also Office/LibreOffice files, and I also want to use it as a monitor for my personal computer for office work, since it will be much healthier for my eyes and my brain (see Marshall McLuhan/Herbert Krugman research on the effect of TVs and monitors on brainwaves, on the left brain, and on brain activity).
It will be available next monthin Japan, so we have time to organize ourselves.
4 GB to store PDF files : a bit cheap from Sony at this price. Well, at least microSD cards can be used to expand it.
Around 735 euros. How long for their industrial process to become more efficient and thus less costly ?
I forgot to say that this is a day to rejoice, since we waited for this impressive reader for a long time : it is for real ! Finally !
