Dear UncleDuke,

I don't know of any products called astok reader.

If you really had to troll around here with this comment which by the way states a conclusion anyone could arrive to by him/herself, you could have at least typed the company name (Astak) correctly. As for whether the thread is indeed a paid ad or not, I don't really know, since I am not affiliated in any ways at all with either Astak or RobertB or the forum owners. (I just want to buy a new device as soon as I am able to).

Considering the recent and in my opinion fairly hostile behaviour exhibited by the powers-that-be of the forum towards RobertB's activity in this thread, I would guess it is not a paid ad. Unpaid maybe :-).

If anyone is hurt by my opinion expressed in the previous paragraph, then I apologize and hurting them was not intended.

Anyway, why does it hurt you that a company provides information about their e-book reader products in a thread that is clearly designated to be about Astak products on the forum of a site dedicated to e-books and e-book readers so that we (their prospective customers) can have those infos?

If you don't like the thread this way and/or it causes real or perceived bodily or psychological harm to you, you are in no way obligated to read this thread. Of course you are still free to do so. We really don't force it on you.

Best regards.

Robert
