Thanks for News, but all that stuff is around hardware, hardware stuff is aged now, the main stuff is software, every one knows the lack software mainly of OB readers!

Call me "The Grinch" if you want, but I would see at what speed it's possible to turn the pages, if it's enough fast to pass from a book to an other, how to crop and zoom in the pages. Yes, the ability to make beautiful drawings is impressive, but if I want an e-reader it's to read.
And as written, the software is the main problem.

Librera! For real time (but I should mention ezPDF as an incredible preprocessor).

I understand that you would like a demonstration, but as a reassurance I think we can pretty safely assume "present performance multiplied by between 2 and 6".

Myself, I begged Onyx "Please make sure that Kingsoft/WPS work well!". I fully trust it will, and I believe it will.

I want to underline that video wasn't made by me. I found it surfing in the web and I posted it. So I can't answer your questions. I hope that software will meet our high expectations!

I have the thingie for you ; )
Firefly (with) RK3399. This baby sports a CPU that is the de-facto flagship of Rockchip, which boasts - again in Geekbench 3 parameters handy for comparison - a 1350 single core and 3250 multi core. In terms of the almost-past Onyx base boards, that's 5 times the performance using a single core and a dozen times when moving all the actors!
This single board computer does not look portable out of the box - but the "Yundoo Y8 (Rockchip RK3399) TV Box", for example, does... Now, all you need is a good portable battery to power it: I think the Samsung Chromebook Plus - also using the RK3399 - is stated to offer 9 hours of "average" use with its 39Wh battery, and it has a 2400×1600 LED display to feed through it...

Oh, by the way, I found this - apparently a database of the Mini PC on the market...

EDIT 2: but I see that also nicer "Intel sticks" like the Intel Core m3-6Y30 Compute Stick exist... In MacBooks, mean 2650 single and 5150 multi... Nice... I wonder how power efficient it is... This really replaces your desktop, and yes it could be attached to your HDMI receiver and open the portal to flooding light...

Nice video but didn't he say in the video that "the only difference between an Max 2 and Max 2 Pro is the memory"?

It should. I want to underline that they will have different names.

Currently, on the Onyx website it is showing that the Boox Max2 will have 32 GB of internal memory and a micro SD card slot capable of accepting a card of up to 32 GB.

Curiously, there is no mention of the Max2 Pro on their website, nor mention of a model with 64 GB of internal memory. So I guess we will just have to wait and see with fingers crossed. Fortunately, Android 6.0 and HDMI are still mentioned.

That is it. They combine everything and no need Pro version. But still is not available yet. Now, SONY needs to cross finger!
