Astak Makes eBook Readers User-Friendly!!

Astak of San Jose, California, a Team Research Company, started business in 1992. They have risen to be one of the leaders in Security Cameras, Flash Memory Products, and Consumer Electronics.

Recently Astak was certified and approved to pre-load Adobe Digital Editions onto all of their devices. ADE (Adobe Digital Editions) gives readers a new and exciting experience in ease of use, using automatic pdf reflow of pictures and providing the very latest books.

Astak is pleased to announce two new models that should revolutionize eBook Reading. There are great environmental reasons and cost savings compared to printed books… but what really matters most to end users is CONVENIENCE!! Imagine carrying a library of 4,000 books on a device that weighs 6-7 ounces! Imagine 8,000 pages to a single charge using E-Ink technology! Imagine listening to YOUR favorite stereo music while reading!! And… the price is gentle and easy to join the growing excitement of eBooks! Google alone makes 500,000 FREE eBooks available for use on Astak devices. Unlike our competition, Astak remains OPEN FORMAT! Our devices read and display 12 formats and 20 languages! Buy eBooks from our website, our partners websites, or 300 plus other websites.

Astak announces the EZ Reader Basic. This is a 6 inch model selling at a new price point: $259. The controls are so intuitive that you can take it right out of the box (we recommend charging the battery first however) and read more than 100 free classic eBooks for the entire family without even checking the User Manual (we DO suggest reading it for valuable tips and care instructions). Loaded NOW with Adobe Digital Editions… everything is IN THE BOX!! This device comes with the crush-resistant leather-like case and the ear buds INCLUDED!! The box even contains a USB cable, AC charger, wrist leash, and even a battery door screwdriver (YES, the end user can change the rechargeable battery easily themselves). The SD card slot holds up to 4GB!!

Now… the HOTTEST news!! The new 5 inch EZ Reader Pocket PRO is hereby announced! This is easy to carry in your shirt or jeans pocket, or a sport coat inner pocket, or a small purse. BUT… this Mighty Mite contains some major surprises! The Pocket PRO has the brand new EPSON controller and 400 MHz processor for almost instantaneous page turns. NO more waiting! It has 8 levels of grey scale and 200dpi resolution. It has TEXT-TO-SPEECH (it reads to you). It also adds MP3 stereo, displays 12 formats and 20 languages, AND IT COMES IN SIX COLORS (such as Slate Blue, Metallic Purple, Fuscia Pink, and Maroon Lagoon). SD card expandable to 16GB!! Add a $229 price point and you have one of the hottest Consumer Electronics of the year!! Like above, THE BOX COMES COMPLETE… case and all included! Shipping in late August!!
