It's like they don't want to sell these things. No touch screen. No front light. And no 3.5mm audio jack (which some claim). The jury is out on whether they have microSD slots or not. Some, at least, do. And the screen is better than the pictures EVERY seller uses. I've attached three pictures from a user (Mike) who bought one of these, that were posted on eBook Reader...

Probably the best way to see what a BK4304 screen looks like is to find reviews and images of the TrekStor Pyrus and Liro Minis. It's the same screen that is on these.

If you go there you'll see a very similar Standby screen.

Another review (with more and better) pictures here. Also a 9 minute video review.

Here's a comparison of "Digital Ink" (O-paper) and Pearl E-Ink posted on eBook Reader, Nate says "it's just as good."

I've attached the comparison picture between it and the Kobo Mini from that article.
