Which E-book device do you have? - Page 3

i'm going out on a limb and guessing they are both Hanwang devices (which i've never actually heard of before) so anybody with either of them can vote for that one.

Now, just to throw a wrench into the works, in which countries can you purchase a Sony from, either a walk-in store, or by internet? Besides the US.

You can buy the Sony 505 in Ireland from either Waterstone or a Sony store.

You forgot text-to-speech ebook readers like the VR Stream, BookPort and BookCourier. I think I might be the only one on the forum with one of these, so it's probably not worth adding.

From the MobileRead Wiki

"Hanwang N510..A Chinese reader that uses a 5" E-Ink screen with the same number of pixels as the current 5" screens which increases ppi to 200"

So, its already there.

It says "Hanwang N510", but I guess you're right, plus I'm not sure there's a lot of people around with this device anyway

Could a Mod add "or 516" to Hanwang N510? Thank you.

zelda_pinwheel · 02-01-2009, 07:28 PM

okay okay ! sheesh.

desertgrandma · 02-01-2009, 07:29 PM

Thank you!

desertgrandma · 02-01-2009, 07:43 PM

This should really be a world wide poll.

May I ask my German and French speaking friends to let the German and French forums know?

Thank you.

Done for the French one : here.

I don't speak German and I don't think a Google translation will be the best so...

I like the poll.
I would be curious to see the results.

You should add "Symbian Phone or Blackberry" - those are also Mobipocket platforms.
