"external Micro SD Card slot" ??? Um, how can a SLOT be external?
And why only 13.5 hours battery life for a non-backlit screen? I'll bet they go for at least $500 US also... (if they ever make it to market) |

external- meaning not hidden internally behind the battery cover or some such.
Its still LCD and its using a digitizer for input- so 13 hours in a device that size is actually quite allot. |

Sweet. The more ereaders, the more competition, then their prices will most likely drop.

The one thing they don't show in this vid is the reader app! I hope some more vids show up soon, because this looks like a very promising device to me. |

Just saw it this morning. Is is the same as in this link ?
http://www.mediaworld.it/offerte-pro...a/notebook.php It is in Italian, sorry for that, and with only a few information. Most important things, the price includes a rigid cover, whatever it actually is, it has wi-fi. No news on the supported formats, though. Bruno EDIT : I had a look, the do not seem the same, on second thought they are actually a lot different. I wonder where this came from. Oh yeah, got it, it is the DR 900. It is not cheap at all, even for a 9" screen. Last edited by brudigia; 12-13-2010 at 07:41 AM. |
