Hi, I'm looking since two months for a decent ereader both for academic reading and viewing technical documents. Since the start of this thread I've been following the news you posted here with great interest and can't wait for the ditto to come out.
seems at what information is out there to be the only 9" reader close of comming out and also for people like me, who want it mainly for working. The Que as an alternative is overpriced and who knows, when it comes out. I do have some questions regarding the ditto.
1) Marked text and annotations. Let me put it as a use case: I'd like to read pdfs, mark some passages in the text and maybe do here and there an annotation via virtual keyboard or via pen-scribbeling. Afterwards I connect the device to the computer (USB/wireless) and get the textpassages I marked as a textfile on the computer. Ideally each text block in this file has the number of the page(s) where it is from (quoting info). Is this possible with this device or any ereader for that matter? I've only played with the sony dayly yet and it is utterly useless for this purpose as far as I know.
2) can you access the LAN wirelessly from the device in order access/copy files?
3) will there be a rudimentary browser?
4) what is the bluetooth intended for - keyboard? that'd be mighty fine.
I appreciate all your answers and i'll keep my fingers crossed for your success. one more thing...Will it be available in europe around the same time as in the states? And I hope, when it's out, there's gonna be a video to get a feeling for the handling and the refresh timing.
thanks again for the answers...
