FRY's blowout on Astak EZ Reader July 3-5
Dear All:

The rebate will now be in effect on July 3 thru 5 at FRY's Electronics. This is a $30 rebate and FRY's is promising the lowest price ever on the Astak EZ Reader 6 inch.

Frankly I think they and we are both crazy to sell a fabulous device, that has proven itself, at such low prices; and likely it will never be anywhere near this low again.

So... if you are in the market for a new 6 inch eBook Reader NOW is the time. You WILL be able to download onto it the Adobe Digital Editions from a very soon firmware upgrade. The device is E-Ink, displays twenty languages and handles 14 formats. It has stereo MP3 with an EQUALIZER. It displays horizontally and vertically. It has three major font increases and we give you easy steps to load additional fonts onto it from our FAQ sheet. It has USA tech support and USA full warranty. The device is known at FRY's Electronics as rock-solid, the lowest returns of any eBook Reader. Every MobileRead Forum personwho has ever purchased one has only raved about how good it is. There has never been a single negative review.

This is a BUNDLE Pack and includes free 2GB SD card, card reader-writer, 200 free pre-loaded classics, and comes WITH a crush-resistent leather case, USB cable, AC charger, wrist leash, ear buds, and even a screwdriver for the easily replaceable and rechargeable battery.

ALL we know is that it will be under $229... we do not know FRY's final price. LOOK at the ad for FRY's on July 3 thru 5!!

The search engine at Fry's has never been particularly good. Even searching for Astak does not find it. I did get a motion sensor and camera, however.

Dear rlparker:

Type in the keyword "ebook" on frys.com and you should easily find the EZ Reader. Frys uses a somewhat convoluted (no offence intended to FRY's) way of finding things and proper names is not one of the ways (despite that being the most logical way).

Let me know if any further trouble!!

Do a search on "ebook readers". You'll get 3, one is the EZ Reader.

Sale starts July 3!!

Yes, the ad will be in all the papers and will start Friday!! That means you can buy an EZ Reader, pre-loaded with 200 classics, and take it home and start enjoying it over the long weekend.

Please remember to charge the EZ Reader no matter what the Battery Charge Gauge shows. Battery Charge Indicators are only meant as a guide and new batteries notoriously throw off the gauge.

PLEASE CHARGE FOR AT LEAST THREE HOURS and make sure you insert the battery. China forbids shipping devices with the battery installed. The battery in the box is not an extra... you need to install it before charging!! This is a one-screw cinch to do and a screwdriver is included in the box.

Failure to charge before using can lead to slow and sluggish performance and even screen freeze-ups. Always CHARGE the battery first on ANY eBook Reader.

You will LOVE the EZ Reader!!!

Robert, FYI, clicking the e-reader promotional bar at Astak sends you to your mobiebook site, which loops you back to Astak!

Dear Penforhire:

Thank you. They are revamping to Mobiebook.com website and the brand new www.goEZebook.com website is almost ready. Last week we had the trial walk-through of the new website and 22 people make suggestions to improve the site and we are making those changes now. We HOPE to open the new website very soon and then all will be fine as we will direct to that soon.

We have shut down the link on www.astak.com to the old website and supposedly it is now done.

Thank you!!

Frys special price, just checked is at $249. is this before or after the $30 rebate?

If before, thus its $249 - $30 = $219? How does one gets the rebate? through mail? or credit card refund?

Thanks
