Hi
Portrait viewing (first picture) is useless - font too small - and it’s just what every 6” eBook reader will show.
Reflow is useless (second picture).
If this is an example of the reflow PDF output from the reader, it’s a disgrace, the one in the Sony (505 or 700) is way much better - never seen a reflowed PDF in me 505 so messed up, and for sure never with the letters “on top of each other” like it’s shown in the image.
Landscape viewing is acceptable, but again you can obtain this reading experience with all the 6” eBook readers who support PDF. The Sony 505 and 700 are great as they “cut” the page in 2 and thus give a half of page each time, the Cybook is more difficult as one must test several “zoom” options until finding the correct correlation between enough font size and page navigation.
So I do not see why the eSlick is so special (besides the bad reflowing), and others are offering something very similar for quite some time now.
If you want, you can post here the same paper and I can text it in the 505 and the Cybook and post the results, so you can compare.
Best regards,
