dumb request!

any way you could post a quick video of your new reader in action, from power on, to selecting a book within CC, and a couple page turns in moon reader?

I've always found e-ink to be too slow page turning, but it's been a while since i've really looked at one in action
Not a dumb request at all! As far as the video goes, I can't promise anything right now, but I'll see what I can do. Most e-ink devices will be slower booting up and starting apps than a more conventional Android tablet. But my T63 does reasonably well with page turns.

I hadn't though of using CC as my book repository, either, until I started seeing glitches with the Books "app" in the Boyue firmware. I started looking for an alternative, and CC does just fine in that role. Better than the Books "app" even if it worked properly all the time.

Edit: The problem with doing a video is that I have an iPhone that uses mov format, and I see no way of converting to one of the supported formats here without buying a converter that I wouldn't otherwise use. Sure, they offer free trials, but then you only get to convert a fraction of what already is a short video, from what I see. Unless someone has a suggestion, I'm afraid I can't help there.
