First impressions:
Large and heavy. I have to hold it with both hands. But I do usually with a book too.
There are two keys to scroll to the side. Should there not be three times? The "knärtzen" unfortunately. I am reminded of plastic and Elaste from Schkopau ... This may Kobo and Kindle better. But the leaves but also the touch screen can be used. Why should I change my habits? In the read mode to the menu it is only by pressure on the display in the top left.
The display contrast is not as high as at the Lux Touch, but the lighting is excellent and evenly. Think with the lower contrast I can live with, especially since the letters are now bigger and Schäfter.
The lighting can be regulated continuously. Did it just connected via USB mode and notice that the lighting by tapping the top of the screen still can be controlled. Bug or Feature?
For USB mode: 2.7.0 Calibre recognizes the reader and the Übertrageung is fast.
For software: it is still the software with the old menu structure on it.
A software update was not available. That would do the reader but quite well: after several pages turn he lays a commemorative one second. The Reader crashed after the first turn and after turning on the language and the time was interrogated again.
The case is now up plan, ie the display is no longer admitted. Pleasant.
Conclusion: up on the story with the keys and software (I had at least expected the Ultras) the device is quite successful. Hope PocketBook improved since after quickly, also a new theme would be nice.
a few more impressions:
With the orignal cover of the Reader is 532g heavy. Ok it is now loaded in and thus heavier.
The cover makes a quality impression. It is the design which is already used came with the PocketBook Touch Lux Limited Edition. In the closed state, the lid is held in place by magnets. Unfortunately, it does not stand. The few grams would also have been bearable. For the shell looks very valuable.
It is thus clear that I will only use the InkPad home. In my bulging backpack drivers it's probably kapput.
Included are again the fbreader and the adobe reader. Where is what has changed are the fonts. LiberationSants on the Lux I use the font size 32. On the use Inkpad I z.Zt, I must again test a little, DroidSansFallback in 42. It fit on the InkPad still more words in a row and what's important to me is: it is much easier to read.
How did I get out now can be übrigends configure the two keys. Suitable for everyday use to scroll it does not work. But can be perfectly put the menu on it. But to call the menu on the upper left corner I got used to.
Software crashes sibility übrigends no further.
Conclusion: the purchase and the wait was worth it. Especially due to the higher resolution, the books are easier to read.
