My attempt at translating the chinese text:
1. Reporter: What is the connection between ebook reader devices and current popular web ebooks?
Yang Hong: First, let me quote FangZheng Electronics Vice-President ZhouQin's interview with XinHua Network: "There are two definition of eBooks: In the (first) restricted sense, ebooks refer to handheld reading devices. In the (second) general sense, ebooks encompasses the whole complete process of write-ups (or drafts?), editing, publication, distribution to reading. Ebooks can be read/browsed in a handheld ereading device and can also be read on a calculator's screen (!). Ebooks is not limited to the display of text, pictures and layout style of the original paper book publication, at the same time, it can include audio, video multimedia content.
I feel that the [definition of a] ideal eBook device should be: To support high quality reading layout and format, and incorporate high-encryption for copyright protection (basically DRM); To have a good display screen that is suitable for reading; To have adequate storage space and ability to expand on such storage space; To have the latest input/output (original: communication, but in the context, he seem to be referring to input capabilities) technology for convenient update and change of content (it may also be referring to wifi as a means to change the whole content instead of modification of content on the device); To have good User-Interface (Literal: Man-machine interface), and under non-DRM situation, to support the widest range of content format.
... *phew* ... took awhile ... the following questions are not translated yet ...
