Nope. That's mostly academic though, since there are plenty of videos that show it in action with various types of files and formats, and of course I needn't say that it uses an e-ink screen.
My opinion is based predominantly on speed and screen quality. I've heard plenty of "well I haven't had a problem with it" excuses from users of just about every maddeningly slow reader device out there, and plenty of "well mine seems fine to me" comments bout all the different mediocre e-ink screens of every shape and size. I've played with a decent number of devices beyond just my especially sluggish prs-505, so that's not my sole point of reference either.
Go ahead and promote the devices...but just ignore me since I haven't personally used your sluggish-but-feature-rich device. Comparing it to slower e-ink devices is a bit unfair...like comparing a sloth to a glacier.
I have considered hooking up an etch-a-sketch to a CNC controller, but it would sacrifice a bit of portability and DRM compatibility.
