We keep working on corresponding software optimisation.
Concerning our promises. Onyx made his earlier announcement according to promises of its suppliers, but it can not really push them to start mass production on time.
I would suggest you to invest a part of your 1500$ in the Max and the rest in the Max+  and don't wait until 2017. I am sure you will be delighted by this device like I am. |
Dear Booxtor
You are totally right! Your suggestion can not be rejected. I don't deny the Boox Max is the best E-ink Reader in the market from its specs. I am using Boox M92 which give me much better experience than Kindle DX. If Onyx didn't release Max, I would have bought SONY. But I really hate Sony's close system. I am sure if the Boox Max+ released, the price will not higher than $800. I will get 2 with $1500 and enjoy the device earlier. In fact, as a journal reader, putting 2 papers side by side is very usual case. I agree with you and I will go for one! Booxter, you are talent sales!
