Can anybody recommend the Kno? - Page 2

Kno is abandoning its ereader/tablet and will focus on making ebooks and apps for existing tablets.

Typical... I liked the form factor so much! Well, maybe they're selling out the stock? If they are, I'm game!

They have no stock to sell off. They claim that sales were underwhelming which should mean that they made more tablets than were demanded, when in fact they haven't filled their preorders. The only people that I could find who had a tablet were employees and testers who still had a beta version.

And people complain about Notion Inks business methods...

Well, I guess I'll have to wait a bit longer for that perfect tablet. 14 inches would be perfect for me.

Don't bury the Kno device just yet:

Would be nice. Three, please. One of me, one for each of my kids, to school. Wonder if it will be hacked for Android... I would prefer that to Linux, because of the apps.
