Great job on the "sticky"!!
Quote:
Thank you for a good write-up in the sticky!! Today, as of noon, we have finally finished a lengthy rewrite of the FAQ. It now lists the features and formats for BOTH the Pocket PRO and the EZ Reader Basic. It lists the battery replacement numbers. I think it is finally a far better sheet that tells a lot more (particularly in regards to the Pocket PRO features. Now they will send that off to have the Web Guru post it up! The units come with 110-120 volt and U.S. plug. Yes, in some other countries the end user will need an adapter. We are supposed to be selling in only North America and when we ship outside of that area... I apologize, but an adapter may be needed. |

Sorely tempted to order two, but there wasn't a discount for postage. Paying US$80 for 2 units to be delivered was just a touch pricey. |

If details not available, I can still use the MicroUSB plug to charge the unit - got too many of there sitting around the place. |

It is a VERY pretty pink.

I know what you mean. That shade of Fuscia Pink is very pretty. I do not know. I do not think I would mind at all carrying that around. It totally caught me by surprise how attractive that is. I could TRY to ship two in one box and save on freight a bit. Are you in Taiwan? Tell me and I will go and see what postage would be with two in one box. We might also (according to my Operations Manager) find a slightly slower way that would bring the cost down when shipping two to a box. |

No good dead

99% of the public are very nice people. It is the 1% that pull apart the plastic halves, remove the electronics, maybe insert a snall stone for weight, and then return it to the store. These idiots would sell their mother on a Ponzi scheme. It is a shame what that miserable 1% does to keep prices high. On a separate note: we spent the afternoon today doing trial shoots for a Pocket PRO video to put up on YouTube. Tomorrow is the real thing! It is NOT glitz and gloss... just a very down-to-earth walk-thru on the Pocket PRO. |

Any USB charger that supplies 5V 1A should work fine (that is what the EZ Reader charger supplies), standard chargers might only provide 0.5A and that should be ok too (since that is what a laptop, say, would provide). The model number for the EZ Reader charger is UE05WCP-050100SPA. It is a "travel charger", switching between 100-240V, but it only comes with the US plug adapter.
