Interesting, if you look at Bluetooth 4.0 there is a remark it will be updated via Firmware-Update, which means Bluetooth4 will be presumably not availabe at June 9th, when the polish onyx reseller begin to ship the T68

Good find Dolansky

Another seller (with better feedback) on aliexpress has it : http://www.aliexpress.com/item/ONYX-...857645426.html ($290 though)

It s probably already been said but you can also buy a batch of 2000 pieces on alibaba if you want http://www.alibaba.com/product-detai...886961893.html
(the contact lady on this page was in Charbax video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Latd8svqno )

Don't be so impatient

be aware that:
  • it is just a preorder. I am sure it will be hardly delivered before June 14th.
  • Regarding the price of 179EUR - in the scope of delivery there is no cover and no wall charger
  • Artatech (onyx-boox.com) offers just one year of warranty
  • Because of Ivona licence you have to expect some update lilmitations like in the past..
  • Because of Android OS you can easily use alternative TTS (like Acapela), which offers much more voices and languages in (your case 4 Swedish voices)


In our price of EUR 189 the scope of delivery contains additionally wall charger and original Onyx designed protective cover.
We offer two years of warranty.
I am taking part on development of alternative PDF Reader App, which will include much more functions and tools as regular preinstalled PDF Reader .
We ship to Sweden via UPS (2 days) EUR 9.44
Your final price would be EUR 198 in our store (including shipping)

I like it actually very much. It is ideal for novel reading. I am going to prepare a short video review, so you can make your own impressions.
At the moment most of the time am working with M96 because of work on PDF Reader optimisation for pro's, but for my novels I am using T68 (because of optimal size, weight, front light and very good screen)

Regarding i86 they just confirmed final design (it was permanently changed in last months). It will be built with IR touch, Glow Light, freescale 6 @ 1Ghz, Android 4.0 or 4.4 , bluetooth 4.0 etc. I don't have detailed specs yet. I guess it should be ready for MP soon. Estimated availability - end of July...

Hi Booxtor,

The M96 was supposed to be available this week right? Or maybe you would like to write some software (special PDF reader) for it first?

Sounds good! The T68 is basically an Android-powered version of what I have now (a Kobo Aura HD), which is nice, but not enough to make me switch. But as I find the 6.8" screen a little too small, and the 9.7" of my Kindle DX, in comparison, a bit too large, I think the i86 will be just what the doctor ordered

Which is funny, because I found the iRex iLiad, which also was 8" back in the day, too large when I bought my Cybook Gen3 way back in 2007 (besides being ridiculously expensive, even compared to my Cybook, which was far from cheap back then)

Have ordered mine - 209,82 € including shipping to New Zealand. If I like it I'll upgrade to one of the upcomimg models with a the larger screen - the i86 sounds "just right"

Agree, I will probably upgrade to an 8 inch screen sometime. I liked the Kindle DX (it lives with someone else now) but I do most of my recreational reading in bed, and tend to hold the device in one hand, so the DX was a little unwieldy.
