Almost Decided on the EZ Reader

Hi guys,

Hey, I'll get right to the point: I really really like the look of the Hanlin (and it's derivatives), mostly because of it's broad format support and affordability relative to the other options. But I got a couple of questions that I couldn't find posted elsewhere (sorry if I missed them!):

1. I assume the Jinke/Hanlin supports Chinese characters - does anyone know if Thai script is supported? Or if the ebooks are pdf, perhaps everything within shows up fine?

2. PDF - I read a few things that intimated that it was a bit slow. I like Djvu, does anyone know if that works better than pdf (much smaller file sizes, and generally loads faster on the PC, I assume it would be faster on the ereader too)?

3. I like that it uses the regular old mobile phone battery. I live in a hot country where batteries don't last as long as they do in N. America/Europe. How hard is the EZ reader to open and replace this (12-18 months down the road if need be)?

Thanks very much.
