I find it especially appalling because they pulled the exact same thing in the past.
Agreed. Android 9 gave me some greater peace of mind for the longitivity of the device as far as app compatibility and security. Also, after I bought their flagship boox note pro for $600, they almost immediately come out with the note 2, a straight up replacement. It basically just feels like they want our money, which isn't hard in this sparse market, instead of trying to build up any brand loyalty with customers. Why promise anything?

They still make decent, functional devices. I just doubt I'll be dropping that kind of money again.
