Onyx Boox M96 - Page 27

Ivan Grozny · 12-01-2014, 03:59 PM

What would be a good free app to 'translate' written stylus text into digital text (maybe saved in .txt or something ?

Is this 'writer' app maybe for that ?

Also, I think a form integration with wikipedia would be great. (since I believe a lot of folks use this for academic purposes).

If we could save the content of wikipedia 'chapters' in local memory and then using some form of multitasking (if we get this feature), switch between the file and thisi wiki data on ereader.

I have a big maschine dynamic file on my M96 and it would be convenient if I could somehow save the content of few wiki chapters into my ereader memory (not download them as new files, just leave them 'stored in some browser app' for later reading).

Just an interesting thought, I know it's probably not realistic. Today I got my M96, and I think the device is great and has a lot of potential, so some of these 'ideas' that come to my mind I will post here.

And thanks all the members who post their reviews of different apps, it is helpful to read their comments.

Playing with my M96.. I think a big factor in the ability for the word processing to keep up with the typing is the way they control the cursor. Simply changing it to a smaller 2x2 pixel block, or perhaps an underscore would potentially enhance the usability. I've also noted that it'd be better if I found an editor with a plain black/white theme, or certainly high contrast.

Did you attach a bluetooth keyboard?

MrPLD · 12-08-2014, 04:19 AM

I did yes, it's working fine. I just somehow managed to disable/mangle the touch-pen when I tried recalibrating it... now it doesn't work at all. Fortunately I managed to get around using the 5-way stick and the keyboard... need to get a better bt mouse/keyboard combo though.

MrPLD · 12-08-2014, 05:25 AM

All soved for now ( press the [RESET] button in the Calibration routine *phew* ).

Anyhow, I wonder how I can go about getting a high contrast theme and altered cursors for this unit

2 questions:

1) What would be a good free gGerman dictionary ? And can I add it to the existing ones?

2) Is there an option to scribble in the browser ? For example to have some word converter so that I don't have to manually type in letter by letter in the google search.

Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me or show a video to see if this device is capable of browsing with chrome for android and using apps like feedly or greader to read rss?

Hello to all . I live in Brazil and I am looking for a M96 ... The problem is that it seems to be sold out everywhere , especially on amazon us , which is the easiest place for cheap and I import it ... someone would have any tips where I could find a M96 to buy as soon as possible in the US or to send to Brazil quickly? Thank you very much

Hi Markonikov. I live in Brazil as well, at Rio, and I ordered one from Booxstor a couple of months ago, received it very fast and all went fine. I recommend his store.
