BIG NEwS!
According to the tracking status (ivan gave me a tracking number, but he told me he shipped it by DHL...I asked him why the tracking wasn't working and he rechecked and found that it had been shipped by FedEx...:-) that now works the STAReBOOK is now out for delivery in my hometown. If I don't miss the FedEx guys today, then I should be able to provide at least a few pictures today.
The package was sent out on the 18th...and it is here now which means staretek put down a lot of money to ship out a review sample. That looks like a good sign to me...
Yesterday I did some further testing with the eRead 3.0 software and also registered for the included IM app (ICQ style thing). One thing I found was that the program comes with several support guys already in the contact list...and they work on sundays. I gave them a bug report and they promised to look into it. Their english is not quite as good as ivan's and their first response is in chinese characters...but apart from that I was impressed.
