On this one, the aspect ratio looks like more 2:1 rather than the about 16/11 it actually is (1200 x 825).

Next time read some of the posts in the topic (or check the specifications on onyx-boox.com) before you ask such stupid questions. I've mentioned 100 times that the M91S and M90 have a 9.7" Pearl screen. I thought you would wanted to know if the sony and kindle have the same contrast ratio and response time.

Unfortunately it looks like the release day on the Onyx M90 has been delayed from the 15th of may til the beginning of June. Both ebookreaderdiscounter.com and onyx-boox.com has changed the date.

Didn't know it ever existed. But all the ebookreaderdiscounter sites will probably ship from Holland no matter what. I'm in Denmark and have ordered the m90 from ebookreaderdiscounter.com and they ship for €9.50. That is fair.

I'm seriously considering one of these myself, but I'm going to wait for some user reviews..... Looks like it's currently a 6/15 ship date.

I find it curious that this reader has only 128k ram. Apparently the Kindle DX has the same amount, while the Pocketbook 902 has 256k (according to the specs). I guess since these devices are dedicated to one task, they don't need much, while most android tablets with LCD screens won't have less than 256k of ram (Like the Archos 70 tablet).

From the url given by pidgeon92, I found this:

"Good quality support for most of the prevailing format: PDF, TXT, HTML, CHM, Mobipocket (Non-DRM). PDB, JPG, PNG, BMP, TIFF, and even MP3, etc. "

Does this mean that epub is not supported???

Of course epub is supported. If you look a bit further down on that page you'll see a list of supported formats, and epub is there.

Does your Onxy 60 support multi-level TOCs for epubs?

The last time I tried an epub with multi-level TOCs (a few months ago) it didn't. I don't think this has imporved in recent firmware.

Okay Thanks. Neither does my new Nook Touch. I confirmed that after reading the following comment from the TeleRead blog:

"I would honestly consider buying the new Nook if they brought back multi-level table-of-contents support. The old Nook had it, the Nook Color does not and they removed it from the Nook Classic with the last software update. O’Reilly books, in particular, are difficult to navigate using B&N products. (I don’t think Kindle includes this feature, either."

I have a number of non-fiction EPUBs that the TOC is now displayed as "PART1, PART2, PART3, PART4." Not very helpful considering most of the useful chapter level descriptions are below that.

yes, they will. Ordering from Sweden, however, would cost less to ship it to Norway. Now it is 19.50... probably fair
