The old Nook had it, the Nook Color does not and they removed it from the Nook Classic with the last software update. O’Reilly books, in particular, are difficult to navigate using B&N products. (I don’t think Kindle includes this feature, either."

I have a number of non-fiction EPUBs that the TOC is now displayed as "PART1, PART2, PART3, PART4." Not very helpful considering most of the useful chapter level descriptions are below that.

Interestingly Kindle Previewer has multi-level 'NCX' navigation. If only they'd add it to the Kindle itself. Many Kindle books actually have 2 level NCX's (no doubt the result of automated conversion from ePub). NCX navpoints are navigable using the 5way controller sort of like next/previous on an MP3 player. You only see the level 1 navpoints (in the reading progress bar as 'tick' marks), but it's possible to navigate level 2 as well if you back up a page from one of the level 1 navpoints.

But that is tragic that Nook doesn't navigate multilevel TOC. I was just going to buy one; now I will have to think about it a little. Perhaps they think Fast Scan(TM) is some substitute? Wrong.

Yes the Onyx Boox M91S and M90 do support TOC.
check the manuals for more info.

Sorry that is not specific enough for us. And since I could not do a keyword search on "TOC" in that manual you linked to, I was not able to research it further.

Search for 'table of content'
What other questions do you have about the TOC recognition?

Does it support multi-level TOCs and will it display those levels in a structured manner (i.e. indented or a collapsible form)?

If you go to the manual provided earlier and search for

5.4.13.10 Table of Content

it does appear to support indented TOCs. A little way up from that page it also shows that it supports bookmarks.

I'll still wait until there are some independent reviews but it all looks pretty good

Thanks. From that graphic in the manual, it certainly looks to be the case.

I will be waiting as well. Besides, on the day of the release, they decided to jack up the price $20 which we know won't hold for long. http://www.onyxboox.com/product_info...products_id=30

P.S. I would really like to see a comparison review between this device and the Pockbook 902/903.

Think the American reseller had a special price for pre-orders.
Tomorrow I will take some pictures with both Onyx Boox M91S as PocketBook 902 to compare them.

I saw this too, and I am sad.... I was hoping to see a user review or two prior to committing to making an order. If the price keeps going up the chances of me ordering will be going down.

Our Page is up https://www.dulinsbooks.com/index.php?p=product&id=682

White is available for immediate shipping. Black is available for order as well but it will be a couple weeks until we have them to ship.

Still trying to find out if we will be able to get any M91S with the strong demand elsewhere.

I see that shipping is only available via USPS? Would there be a tracking number provided?

Dulin's Books · 06-15-2011, 07:05 PM

yes we ship only with priority mail, there is always a tracking number.

Please update this thread when the M91S with black frame is available to order on your site. Thanks!

I only noticed one International shipping price - $78 (described as overseas shipping). Do you ship to Canada, and if so, what would the cost be? Thanks.

Dulin's Books · 06-16-2011, 01:21 PM

when you go through the ordering process it will give you the price for your destination. Canada is $28 and it takes about 6-8 days in transit using USPS priority mail. Sometimes it takes longer as I have actually seen a package sit unmoving for 5 days after being handed over from USPS to Canada Post. But most packages get delivered to Canada in 8.

The International Express shipping cost is in addition to the regular shipping price. This method is for customers who absolutely must have it in 3 days and goes by UPS.
