which device for OpenInkpot?

mclien · 11-16-2011, 10:02 AM

I'm currently searching for new ereader device.
So I didn't find a matching one I constandly lowering my requirements :-(

At least OpenInkpot gives the chance to change things, I was womndering, which would be the best device to start with OpenInkpot.

Most importamt to me is now the possibility to get a propper dictionary on the device.
Second would be to take notes (I know possibly not easy, Perhaps with a bluetooth keyboard?).

If you want a customisable device get a nook touch and root it. Its basically becomes an eink android tablet the author of coolreader the reading software in openinkpot supports nook touch so all its options are accessible.

Hi Dopedangel,

that is shurly a way to look into. Thaks for that.
Since you have the device (and rooted, as I guess), some questions:
(since I#m unused to andriod)

I want basicly: read english books and have (or can install) a good dictionary (en-germ), which works by tabing the word to translate. And be able to take notes inside the book (for making notes/corretions to the stories my daughter writes.
Have you tested things like that?

Just learned, that it would be a bit tricky for they don't ship outside US...

Plenty of sellers on ebay and many ship international.
The Sony PRS-T1 is also a good choice though...
