I have a DXG (worst ereader I ever bought) still working. Any enthusiast passing Limerick is welcome to it! I also have a Boyue Likebook Mars (Android 8) I got for accessing the local library, but the awful Borrowbox stopped working, though still works on an Android 8 tablet and Android 7 phone. Bolinda changed to using some Chrome component that doesn't update on the Mars. Only the built in ereader works well on Mars for epub & PDF. KOReader too slow and clunky. Pocketbook Library interface gui not properly compatible, so only filesystem browsing. Any drawing or handwriting conversion apps have too much eink screen latency.

I've abandoned PDF on eink except for suitable size instruction manuals. All PDF novels, magazines and POD proofing now on a TCL Nxtpaper11. I gave away the reMarkable (ghastly methods to import/export from the tablet and it's really only PDFs) and the 10.3″ Elipsa has now account removed and waiting for anyone that wants it. Too big & heavy for novels, so I read those on a Kobo Sage.

My PW3 was my first decent Kindle. It's now used simply as the choice for "Download to PC" when buying ebooks on Amazon to read on the Kobo Sage. I used to use the Kindles to test new formats for ebooks we publish. I might use the PW3 again for that if we do something different. I have 2 other Kindles.
