Questions about Astak Pocket Pro
Hello.
Right now I have the ebookwise 1150 and want to get a new ereader. I don't need any fancy things like wifi.
I want a reader that will accept MS Reader (lit) format and isn't too expensive. I like all the things I've read about the Pocket Pro but have several questions.
Will PPro read lit files even if they are in DRM format? I have lots of ebooks in MS Reader on my computer but I can't tell if they are DRM protected. If PPro can't read DRM lit files is it easy to convert to a format that will work? Also does anyone know how I can tell if my MS Reader files are DRM protected or not?
What are the best formats to use on the PPro? I normally buy fiction and romance books from places like Books On Board, Fictionwise, All Romance Ebooks, etc. I want to make sure the PPro will accept formats that I can buy at those stores.
How many ebooks will fit on the internal memory on the PPro? 100? More than 100?
I have a PNY brand 2gb SD card with a micro card adapter. It shows it is for music, videos, games, pictures (it says "cell phone "memory") - but nothing about files like ebooks. Does anyone know if it will work as the SD card on the PPro?
What does "user replaceable battery" mean? Will I have to buy expensive batteries frequently or will the battery that comes with the reader last a long time?
Does the PPro have a backlight so I can read in the dark (like I can with my ebookwise)?
Thanks for all your help. Also please let me know if there are any other suggestions for ereaders that will do what I want and aren't very expensive.
