Looking For Hanlin V8
After many (maybe too many) hours of research, the Hanlin V8 comes closest to the features I want in a dedicated eReader. The secondary screen for searching, and roll bar to move from page to page, move it up to the top of my list.
I emailed Jinke, but the V8 is no longer available for purchase. Does anyone know of an alternative source? Thanks so much! Sherri Last edited by Dr. Drib; 01-15-2010 at 05:57 AM. Reason: Almost 2 years old. |

Consider this - It has a Linux OS that's potentially hackable (see http://www.openinkpot.org/) and a touchscreen LCD. Whilst it's not _quite_ a full touchscreen eink display like the Iliad, it does have the advantage in that it's a regular LCD display that's easily updateable. All this for less than half of what an Iliad costs. Now, can you see why I'm sorely tempted by the potential that the V2 presents...? |
