I can't judge it on its view on that page but it says:
8 inch E-Ink Triton, 800 x 600, 125 dpi
Even the Glo at 6 inch has: 1024 x 768, 210 dpi.
While it has nothing to do in a firmware topic (no I am not say you go offtopic,ik bedoel het goed ) I don't think that stated on this resolution and such a low dpi, I would ever want this. (unless it switch back to the native resolution when reading plain txt from an epub), but then even 8 inch is a bit to big,it is maybe handy for pdf and/or study books but on a normal epub or kepub it adds nothing with a coulor screen and then the difference between 210 dpi and 125 is to big.
My Aura HD with 6,8 inch is even to big to read comfortable in bed (I use a Glo for that) and to pick out an 8 inch reader out of your pocket,you must have a coat like a firefighter.
It is maybe to far to judge on my own experience,but for common daily use,I would never buy it, to big and to low DPI rate and to low resolution.
But,we will see...
