New thread or this one.

Second, the size that was quoted, 151 mm x 105 mm, am I correct that this is the size of the UNIT not the screen? If so, do you have the size of the screen?

In researched the previous posts for the BeB mini, they talk about a scroll wheel on the right for changing pages, I also saw some buttons. Are these on the Pocket Pro?

And one picture showed a slot in addition to the SD slot, is there another slot in the Pocket Pro.

On the formats listed, mobi was obviously absent. Does that mean no mobi non-drm support? Edit: I just noticed the "prc" format, am I right that this will be the non-drm mobi?

Edit: just noticed in RobertB's blog that a format of ppt is supported. Haven't heard of this, anyone else know?

PS: MODS, if we are going to open a new thread for the Pocket Pro, feel free to move this entry to it.
For the time being we have to use both threads for the Pocket PRO as there are many posts on there from people that have never posted here. It spreads me thin; but it is news. This will always be the main thread.

Samples are on the way to us. I know nothing yet about the scroll wheel or second slot until I get the samples. Dale likely knows more. I will email to Jinke tonight but they are all at a trade show.

PPT is PowerPoint Slides. You can display PowerPoint slides on the EZ Reader Pocket PRO from what this tells me.

prc is indeed non-DRM Mobi. Amazon, for reasons I cannot understand, does not allow Hanlins to be sold with Mobi DRM in the USA. This is a sore subject... but we abide by what Amazon wants.

The screen size is 5 inch measured diagonally. I can be more specific when the samples arrive... hopefully Friday.

These ARE all great questions and I wish I could set things straight but I do not know yet.
