One thing I like about PB903 is the bluetooth, nice to connect a keyboard, if it's possible ofc, but they say so. There's even Asus Eee Reader DR900, but I'm a bit skeptical about that one, and it uses Sipix, AKAIK that's inferior to eInk. Can't seem to find much information about it too and it's a bit smaller, only 9" vs 9.7". Last edited by AkumaTakeshi; 06-17-2011 at 06:30 AM. |

I made two pictures to compare the screens of the Onyx Boox M91S and the PocketBook Pro 902.

I'm really becoming more inclined to M90, because I've been reading and Pocketbook seems to have some serious problems with CS and support and for the time that it was launched and still has some serious firmware problems. Well I hope the guys at Onyx really work hard to bring us a nice, professional and stable product Well I think I'm just a bit hard to please, it took me about 2 months to finally decide to go for the Kindle 3 as my 6" e-reader Last edited by AkumaTakeshi; 06-17-2011 at 09:09 AM. |

The second is overseas shipping. Shipping is based on destination. Most European countries will be $45. Shipping is via US Post and takes usually 8-10 days. That $78 fee is for Overseas Express Shipping. The cost is in addition to normal shipping rates and is for those customers who absolutely , positively, must have the device in 3 days. For this service we use UPS. Last edited by Dulin's Books; 06-17-2011 at 11:23 AM. |

^^^ How's the shipping on the white ones coming along? I tried sending you a question via your contact us form, but it kicked me back to the index when I hit the submit button.....

Sorry for a short delay... I've finished recording and editing at friday afternoon and tried to upload my new video to Youtube. It was a little to big though (900mb in 720HD) and upload to youtube failed finally. Today is family day (I've promised to my wife to stay whole day with children). So I will cut the video in some short parts and upload it tomorrow ...

1st video after the firmware update
Hey there ppl,
Thanks in advance for the video Booxtor . I'll gladly wait for it . In the end.. what i need is to spare my eyes (and my back) from the hours sitting&reading PDFs EPubs etc.. or reading online, either on wikipedia or doing any other research through a browser. Eventhough i use a 27" .. (or a 13" laptop) to do so .. I expect I will finally get the paper-feel.. whilst ditching paper and screen frequency rates altogether! And not to mention the ereader's portability, and finally making the so desired annotations.. Hopefully, one will have no excuse to, not read, anymore.. I'd gladly exchange battery life for stylus responsiveness. (to a certain degree evidently .. like getting at least 8 to 11 hours .. out of the M90.) That's why i havent gone for the Asus Ep121 yet. Has anyone here.. tried a capacitive stylus on a touch-enabled ereader (e-ink)..? I assume light, but serious, sketching (architecture) on an e-ink reader.. is still only in the future.. kudos from Portugal PS : Hell.. and i thought that i would have to get an Android tablet to have text to speech hehehe |sarcastic| .. |

Hello again
Here is my new promised video. On the video I'am comparing the 9,7" devices from Onyx and PocketBook. Unfortunatelly I've had to split the whole video in two parts. Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNvxXD4NUlc Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYnPo29WQaU Cheers Last edited by Booxtor; 06-20-2011 at 07:23 AM. |

Thanks for the video. I have seen that M90 is generally slower than the PB 903. Do you think that this is due to the different RAM memory (128 MB for M90 vs 256 MB for PB 903) or it mostly regards the firmware? |

The processor could be a part of the difference in speed. Even though they have the same Mhz they are not from the same manufacturer. Mhz is not everything. But I would guess that the RAM and the firmware is the reasons for the lower speed.
Booxtor do you experience any difference in contrast and picture quality between them? |
