It looks like you could read on your txtr and then if you get a minute somewhere on your cell phone it would sync the position and you would pick up where you left off on the txtr. Pretty slick overall.
Yeah, I've been looking into that. From design to the backend I'm really loving this device, open-source development is just the icing on the cake. It's so simple looking and unobtrusive, as I imagined an e-book reader should look. it's the right size for me, as I mostly read paperbacks and it seems very similar in dimensions (screen wise). I can't wait for this to be released
