Good point. I had a good experience with the T62+ I had last year. Foolishly, I decided to sell it when I was cleaning house last spring.

Well, I decided to return the T62E to Banggood in exchange for a T63. They promised to reimburse me for my shipping costs in returning the T62E, which seemed like a fair deal. The T62E is basically unusable. I have nothing to lose in exchanging it for the T63. But it would have been silly to keep the T62E and pay to get a T63 as well.

In the meantime, I have an Onyx Boox C67ML Carta 2 for my eBook reading. That device is working quite well. Its only limitations are the small userdata partition and a shorter battery life than the T62+ had.
