Yeah, I was looking at the ONYX devices earlier. The Boox Go 6 is now in a similar price range than the Clara BW and the Paperwhite.
It’s not that I am personally looking for a device right now but I am trying to find out how to make the functionality of my own produced books as accessible/compatible as possible to other people with different devices, in terms of my multilingual approach and simultaneous reading/listening experience.
As the books will mainly be fiction and literature (text focused) and catered to children and first/second language acquisition you actually don’t navigate that much even when simultaneously reading and listening. So this will not really jeopardize the main advantages of e-Ink.
What Android based e-Ink device do you rock?
It would be very interesting to know whether you would be able to run e.g. the BookFusion app (which natively supports AudioMediaOverlays) on your device. And above all I personally would really love to know whether BookFusion lets touches fall through in order to get JS executed on Android like it does on their iOS version.
KOBO is soooo close already if it weren’t for this stupid limitation to block events (on their e-Ink devices only) to reach the JS layer, which itself is already working perfectly.
That would open up a whole new world for dynamic content if applied respectfully.
