Hi!

Sorry for making yet another new thread...

The topic should explain itself pretty well...^^

Now...i'll try to make a start:

The V2 uses LinuxOS and offers a SDK, the V8 uses WolfOS and there is no SDK

The V2 has 200Mhz CPU and 64MB flash memory, the V8 has48 Mhz and 2MB (if I read correctly)

I know that this info is already in t he comparison matrix, but i'm trying to gather new info here to augment/complete the matrix. I sent an email to Jinke (god...they must really hate me by now...I constantly bombard them with questions and suggestions...) asking for more concrete info about the differences between the V8 and the V2, especially concerning battery-life and on-off behaviour (the V8 apparently just powers down after you turn a page and then "wakes up" when you press another button, you can't even switch it off).
