			JSWolf, with your understanding of both the V3 and the Sony Reader, which would you buy if you had to buy again? fjell |

 Isn't it only fair that the tag for this sub-forum gets changed to "E ink Vizplex, 6-inch SVGA 800x600, 4 grey scales, lBook (OEM)". I mean, firstly, the Bookeen is still just vaporware atm but even it has the 'Vizplex' tag. And, secondly, 'chinese counterpart' makes it seem like some kind of knock-off copy, whereas in fact I suspect Jinke have been making Ebook readers long before Sony jumped on the band wagon. | |

			LVD, sorry, are you selling these V3's yourself?  Are you in the EU?  If so, I would interested in buying one from you.  I hope you don't only sell in enormous quantities. fjell |

			Hi LVD, nice to hear the lBook with Vizplex is coming soon... Can you show us any pictures of the device showing english or german text in a reflow (eg. HTML, TXT, RTF) format? Since you never sent me that sample I can't do that myself...   |

			All that and a screwdriver too?  What a deal!  And it looks like a nice screwdriver, at that.    I especially like the inclusion of a wrist-lanyard.   |

			Well, I finally contacted Jinke and sent them some money for the V3.  Now I get to wait, excitedly, for about a week.  Can anyone tell me if the ones directly from Jinke are with Vizplex technology?  Thanks in advance. fjell |

			At this point, I'd guess they're not, I'm not sure if PVI is actually manufacturing Vizplex yet.     |

			To NatCh:  Well they must be if LVD's version above has Vizplex already. To JSWolf: Yeah, what do you reckon, Wolf, would Jinke's direct supply likely employ the Vizplex? |

			I don't think that back cover would have been posted if it wasn't an actual cover. So yes, I think it'll be VIZPLEX. But, I think the lack of a known DRM format is a problem. I think WOL instead of some DRM is going to be it's downfall.
