Hi Tikker,

thanks for the reply, it is what I had feared.

I haven't heard of the yotaphone so far, technologically a nice thing. Thanks for the pointer!

But I was looking for something that is explicitly not a mobile phone. In my opinion, mobile phones are the worst invention since discovery of radio waves in 1886 by Heinrich Hertz. Which isn't a fault of the technology, but of 99% percent of their owners, apparently incapable of a responsible and considerate use of the technology.

Its sad that tablets and especially eReader nowadays are almost all WiFi (WLAN) only, without mobile data (G4, LTE, ...) connection.
Anyway, I keep looking for mobile data enabled tablet with good eInk or mobile data enabled eReader (with eInk) and support for 3rd party Apps.
