I was curious what the Youtube reviews of this e-reader would be like. Goodereader had a review of the Ocean frontlight saying that this is one of the better e-readers currently on the market (?!). Not a word about how the letters are not black at all, how the screen is grey instead of white and how the frontlight is much poorer than with other new e-reader models.

When I posted my own experience with this e-reader and asked them why they think this is a good e-reader, they promptly deleted my post even though there were no inappropriate words in my post or anything. I did point out the shortcomings of the e-reader, though. So much for their self-proclaimed objectivity in reviewing...

Btw, it took Bookeen more than two weeks and several e-mails to refund me for the returned product. I am not going to buy anything from this company again.
They posted their review after only 3 days. I waited two weeks. I think we can tell the difference.
