Thank you Booxter for your responsiveness. After a few days with the MAX, I can say I'm very satisfied. It works wonders with my large pdfs. Writing is more responsive than I thought (I can pretty much write as with the ordinary speed and carelessness I ordinarily do). The refresh and page turn speed is satisfactory, and the white background is noticeably whiter than my little 8th Gen. kindle. Even internet browsing, especially to read articles, works fairly well. There are some rather hysterical flaws in the device, like placing the power button on the bottom, where it will inevitably get pressed from time to time. Is it our mammalian bias which moved the designers to place its bowels on the bottom? Could be, or they wanted to be different from its predecessors? If so, I implore the good people of Onyx to ignore the crowd and do what is best for the reader (mua). My solution is to flip the screen upside down, which works, even though you then have to cup the pen holder (Doh!). More design suggestions for MAX 2: page turn buttons on the side, not bottom, and rough cloth material on the side to improve handle.
Also someone mentioned that pressing the stylus button will automatically turn the writing function on. For me the button doesn't seem to do anything. Is my stylus jacked or am I missing another step?
