How many buttons has the Inkbook Prime HD? It claims the button functions can be changed, though I can only see a sort of home location button.
Capacitive touch rather than IR, which lowers contrast from ambient light. Personally I think front lights are a last resort during power cuts.
The 8G storage is good but PDF "reflow" is misleading. Very few PDFs can reflow and no scanned content (all out of copyright old manuals, magazines, text books etc). Most of Google Books and Microsoft scanned PDFs on Archive.org need a 10" or larger screen as the text layer is only OCR for search.
[Really useless for PDF: 6" 1024×768 pixels (212 dpi). So lower resolution than a 2015 Kindle Paperwhite and maybe less white with light off.] Update: They now sell Prime HD for €129 with 300 dpi and adjustable colour "temperature". 8gb storage with expandable microSD card up to 32 GB.
Not bad value @ €129. If you can do annotations and read them back with sensible location info. Kindle Annotation export is poor compared to Kobo.
I wonder how much this will be? It would do scans of PDF books, but not magazines: Explore will feature a 7.8" E-Ink screen with a 300 DPI.
