Reward for first Pocket Pro YouTube video!

GA Russell · 09-01-2009, 02:14 AM

I've got a dollar for the first guy or gal who posts a YouTube video of his new Pocket Pro!

Sure, a dollar won't buy much, although it will get you your choice of eBooks. But think of the bragging rights you will enjoy when you show your friends not only your new Pocket Pro but also your GA Russell dollar for which you paid more than a dollar to have framed!

Robertb and others in the business are excluded from this contest. Customers only!

By the way, someone will need to show me how I can tell who posted first on YouTube!

Well, it's not a pocketpro, nor is it a video, but someone has a nice review with pictures of the Hanlin V5, which is essentially the same model:

the most important part of the reward is that the dollar comes from GA Russell lol
by the way.... where do you buy ebooks for $1? I should get my pocket pro on friday, but people on the west coast will get it sooner...

There are already videos of the V5 on youtube.
LBook V5 which really only shows pictures and Hanlin V5 and none of them have commentary.

But I'm also waiting for MR members reviews.

SD, I see a number of threads here offering works for 99 cents. I think they're mostly Kindle books, and since I don't plan to buy a Kindle, I haven't read the threads.

I'm surprised that no one but Robert has posted a Pocket Pro video yet!

I would love to see the speed of the page turning, the infamous 1.8 s (because not everybody seems to have reported it, so maybe it is not that bad). Also the TTS feature would be interesting.

I don't think I 'll have time for a review, but I could do so page-turning with a chronometer next to it and post it on youtube

Please note that Jinke has already said they have a fix in the works for the page turning speed issue. See my comment on this thread:
