A few days ago I got my BeBook Neo (aka Onyx Boox) and still struggling to get everything up & running smoothly.

I first looked at the Amazon Kindle DX, but decided for the BeBook Neo for several reasons:
-I don't like the way Amazon controls the contents of the ereader device.
-The DX memory is not expandable.
-I first wanted a 'big' display, but later on set my mind to a smaller size as to make sure that it is easy to carry around.
-One of the local webshops in The Netherlands had a good offer and within 24hrs it was delivered to my doorstep.

Main use would be lots and lots of documentation, mainly (converted) PDFs to read and take with me especially on holidays. Instead of kilos of physical books.

One of the first things I did, was upgrade it with the latest 1.4 software from Onyx. Uptill now, works ok (as far as I know)
