Well I have been watching these threads for a while. I really want to purchase a 13.3 ebook reader. Tempted by maxboox as at least it is out there and able to be brought! I am watching the ebookreader indigo website too, but they just keep delaying!
I will mainly be using an ebook reader of this size to read my technical manuals. (Cisco study guides etc)
However I am curious to see what the users experience has been like for people who have already purchased this product.
Also I have just been trailing readly (a magazine subscription service) and I was wondering if this is able to run on the MAXBOOX? As that would be pretty cool.

I think I will make a purchase around December time. I was hoping to see reviews from the goodereader and onyboox max.

If I don't go with these what is the best 9.7 ebook reader to go for.

I am still using my IREX 800, which is years old now, this has worked ok for PDF but the screen is a little small. And zooming is quite slow, and when I do this I loose diagram details etc.

So I am still looking for 13.3, it is a shame the sony is not for sale..

thanks for reading.

Paul.
