Looking for a replacement for PRS-600

[dtnguyen]

I have a Sony Reader PRS-600 and I am finding another e-reader that could do some more tasks that I really need as below:

1. Support Vietnamese unicode fonts
2. Supported by PocketReader to let me synchronize RSS feeds
3. Support (ADE) PDF & Epub
4. WiFi and web surf is not required but very welcome

If you have any idea please kind to give me some notes.

BTW, I have read some posts and it seems the e-readers below could be my choice but I'm not sure some things:
1. Bebook Neo: Not sure if it supports Vietnamese and PocketReader
2. Irex (DR800/Iliad): Not sure if it supports Vietnamese unicode fonts

Beside these devices, please give me more advices. Thank you very much!

I can speak some Vietnamese, you can send me a sample file and a font file, I then I can try it for you. PDF files should work anyway, in any language. I haven't tried any Vietnamese files myself yet.

In general I can really recommend the 8" screen size.

For PDF, vietnamese displays correctly without any problem. I attach a MOBI prc file and Arial fonts that good display on my PC but not sure correctly display on BeBook or IRex. Thanks for help.

All the text shows up correctly when I read the mobi file in FBReader. But the formatting is terrible. Just continuous text, no pictures. You wouldn't want it like that. Converting to EPub in Calibre (the Irex cannot read Mobi directly) even without DRM) and the special characters are missing. You would need an epub with embedded fonts. I will try to install your fonts to my reader and see if that takes care of it.

Thank you very much and hope to receive your result soon.
