Looking at Astak to supplement

Sometimes these e-books open slowly with the DR, but to date, I've only had 2 that would not open at all (1 of which was quickly fixed by iRex).

None of that counts the DR's note-taking ability that I often use at the game table.

Thus, I'm looking at the Astak to supplement what I can read over time using the DR.

Does my situation sound like one that would be assisted by having an Astak EZReader or Mentor?

Dear PhishStyx:

Either the Astak EZ Reader Basic 6 inch or the Mentor Lite 6 inch. Both are good choices.

Please read the review posted today on the Pocket PRO. You will note that this independant review said the Pocket PRO does a great job with reflowed PDF and numerous other formats.

The 6 inch EZ Reader Basic does a great job... but the Mentor Lite has the Epson Controller and 8 level grey scale!! So does the Pocket PRO.

Phish, you might want to go to my blog: www.robertbEZ.blogspot.com. I break out all the features of all three on there!! And... thank you!!
