Pocketbook 360 gets Wifi and a few other refreshes - Page 2

I was in the market for one once, too, but was afraid the clicking would put me off, as I am a very fast reader. Another minus in my book was the steep price for a 360° here in Germany. It is at least 169€, where a Sony PRS 350 is 189€. I like PB products, but do find them a bit overpriced.

Oh, me too, no doubt about it. I'm just saying adding Wifi and more storage isn't exactly the big leap some of us might've been hoping for. But then, I'm certainly glad they kept the snap-on lid.

Greenreader has it for £99 = €111.50. And that includes VAT. Heck, Amazon.com has it for $139 + VAT.
