So if you really don't ever want to buy a memory card to perform an update, you've just decided to ignore all of the Netronix-based devices on the market in order to save yourself a one-time $5 purchase. Personally, I think that's a shame, because even though I'm unhappy with Bookeen, I really like what Pocketbook is doing with essentially the same hardware. But they, too, require an SD card for the updates.
In Pocketbook 360 ° microSD Card for the Firmware update is not needed, but Pocketbook encourages its use for reasons of safety.
