Hi everyone

I live in arizona, usa. I really want a reader with built in dictionary and note functions. I like the hanvon n826 and n518 but have not found any user reviews. The Onyx Boox 60 is nice but too expensive for me. I like the pocketbook 360 but would rather have a stylus for notes. Thanks for listening.

Hi Bruiser,

I'm just curious. You said the Onyx Boox is too expensive. How expensive is too expensive for you?

Hi Bruiser! Welcome on Board

If the reader you need should have a built in dictionary and stylus text input - wait a couple of weeks, the new PocketBook 302 is going to have all of this features.

I ordered the hanvon n518. I will let you all know how I like it. It was too expensive for me

actually everything is - I need a job MikeOnyx! At this time I did not have a need for an ebook reader with wireless capabilities and I also wanted a 5 inch reader, so that is why I did not go for the Onyx or Pocketbook 302. The only hands on reviews i found on the N518 were here,here,(this one is the best hands on review but I have no idea what he saying - probably saying he would never buy this piece of junk - the chinese one I was able to translate with google) and here - just saw this one, was looking at another youtube vid. I ordered it off amazon and the guy selling it was helpful. I contacted the usa sales site first and they told me to they were on ebay but I did not see any. I told them about the amazon guy and after I placed my order they told me to buy off him. So hopefully everything will work out - I have so many books to read! I may have read that note taking will not work on pdf but I am not sure. If that is the case, I will have to find a work around.
