There are many informations hidden in this thread.

I got an inkpad too and in comparsion of the frontlight is the inkpad the better one.
But i dont mind.
Yes you can see some uneven splots, but it didnt bother me.
For me is the frontlight acceptable and prefer the i86 over the inkpad because of its software features (my short hardware impression and the pdf settings)
I like the flexebility of the android system and the inkpad had, in my special use cases, some anoying bugs.

Edit: The lowest level of the light is for me acceptable for reading in the dark. Its not as worse as the t68.

The Inkpad, on the right, looks better to my eyes (and in my opinion).

Anyone knows whether the i86+ sold by ereader-store.de has a dual core processor because based on a review on a Russian website, the i86+ branded as Moby Dick has a dual core i.MX6 (1 GHz) ?

Have you noticed with the i86 any accuracy problem with the the touchscreen? I have an Onyx T68: I like very much my device, but it has touchscreen accurancy problems and it's sometimes a little bit frustrating, so I was thinking to buy the i86.

No. It's working as expected.

Isn't that just a typical pen in the picture ?

I have a need for the new, the strange, the geeky, the obscure, the downtrodden. What better way to satisfy this s-t-r-a-n-ge, unaccountable urge than to BUY A NEW EBOOK READER!

The company is tiny...little...itty-bitty.

It's gotten some fairly good reviews. My hope is that the software will be improved.

I don't care for manga; I don't read it.

I'd be using the reader for normal novel reading. It looks like the perfect size for a hardback.

It looks like fun to own.

I'm also unimaginably wealthy. I actually have more than $400 in my checking account. The world is my oyster.
I was looking at the i86 for almost exactly not the same reasons.... (except that urge and bank account). But then some other American company came along and ate my bank account... I think I'll sit this one out and wait till the next incarnation (my bank account should be alive by then again...)

I still like this tablet/ereader, if not for the reader itself, but also for the fact that it is there...

Your fingers.

Maybe some iPad/Android pens will work, too.

So, I placed an order for the i86+ on Wednesday around midnight. Got an email the following morning from UPS with a tracking number. I kept refreshing the tracking page every few hours and it was exciting to follow the journey of the parcel until I stopped getting updates after the parcel arrived in Belgium. I knew that there was a plane on Sunday from Brussels to my city. So, I was expecting the updates to resume on Sunday, but until now, the page hasn't updated since Friday. UPS says the book should be delivered on Wednesday, but according to Brussels Airlines, there won't be another flight to my city until Friday! Is this common ?
