Please note that the screens look much, much better on an actual device.
Also note that during the creation of screenshots I was playing with settings and I switched off the antialiasing and have activated "embolden" option instead.

Pix-18.png - The library in view mode "List". Just hold the OK button, select View from menu an then List.
Pix-19.png - The library in view mode "Thumbnails"
Pix-20.png - The library in view mode "Details"
Pix-21.png - next page in Library, in "details" mode
Pix-22.png - next page in Library, in "details" mode
Pix-23.png - Let us go into Photo library
Pix-24.png - Here we see two top level folders
Pix-25.png - and thumbnails of photos that were present on the device when I received it
Pix-26.png - and a detail of a photo. Interesting feature, using left and right buttons on a D pad you can go to the next / previous picture. Great for comics. You can also start slideshow or initiate Zoom.
Pix-27.png - Dictionary. I haven't inserted text I search for yet. This is not dictionary initiated from inside the book, this one is run from main menu, so you can look up any word, not only word that you find in a book.
Pix-28.png - I searched for some word
Pix-29.png - Let's go to see applications. I have installed some by placing them in "games" folder on a main memory. I have installed terminal emulator and some other stuff.
Pix-30.png - Here we see applications.
Pix-31.png - This is my favourite application. Terminal emulator. Here you can type any Linux comand. PocketBook comes with Embeded Debian Emdebian, with many Busybox binaries. You have most of the usual Linux commands available.
Pix-32.png - I have initiated virtual keyboard.
Pix-33.png - If you go into the terminal emulator and you want to leave it, you issue exit command like this
Pix-34.png - To demonstrate some linux command I have typed df comand that lists all mounted filesystems. You can see that the PocketBook company provided really open system. I am looking forward to many, many interesting third party programs and enhancements.
Pix-35.png - Notes I have created in one of the book. You can find notes as html file after you connect the reader to the computer.
