@Booxtor, can you confirm that Onyx is actually working on incorporating IMX 7 to ANY of its devices? If yes, when we can see the first e-reader EVER to use IMX7? |

If the current competitors do not yet have the new Carta screen - as you imply - then your comparison of the competition "look[ing] rather dreary" would also have to include the current Max, as well. -- Just to be fair and to put your comments in perspective, when slapping down the competition.

The ability to change the font in Neoreader, even for EPUB file. The best result for EPUB is gived by the Onyx's PDF reader on my M92. It will be useful to change the font, even the font to use is specified in the css file, like with Calibre. A plus, the modification of the margins. In technical domain it will be super ! Thanks ! |

I would love a New MAX2..
Higher res screen. Definitely, touch screen pinch and zoom, and it would enable you to use other Andriod apps properly. Latest version of Andriod so we have the ability to use upto date Android apps. Faster processor and memory. Software side:- Which should be able to be done with the current Max. Tabbed pdf/ pages side by side.. So you can take notes on one side and read on the other. Different Fonts. That's it about it ;-) Oh and of course still need the stylus for note taking. happy days. |

He fails to include the current Max, yet he criticizes the current competetion for the very thing that the current Max also does not have. Or, to look at this way: He's criticizing and comparing the current competition against a product that isn't even out yet. So, in effect, he's bashing the competition. There is no excuse for such behavior on Mobileread, ESPECIALLY since he is using this site to promote HIS site. Let's keep the playing field level when criticizing the competition. Booxter is normally a nice guy, but this promotional bashing of the competition - FROM A COMPETING BUSINESS - is very disconcerting. |

An alternative solution: Import with GoodNotes, then export to a new PDF. |

I don't really see it as aggressive bashing
Quote:
Not listing the Max when he's referring to the competition is natural as the Max is Boox, and Boox isn't a competitor of Boox. I probably shouldn't say it, but, well, he's also not going to praise the competition. It being Max 2 means it will naturally be better than Max 1 (we would hope), so in a sense he inferred Max 1 would be somewhat dreary as well. |

He criticized other e-readers, so what? We do it on every day basis here. I think it is important to distinguish personal/business comments and I think that comment was Booxtor's personal opinion and not his ereader shop opinion. Following your logic: a person being an employee of a company A cannot say anything about their competitor, company B. This is violation of the freedom of speech IMHO... |

Although continued updates will help to make the reading experience on the the current Max even better than it already is, updates to software can only achieve so much. I had contemplated holding off on purchasing the Max having heard that the Max Carta would soon be coming out and that the Max 2 would be following later this year. However, as these kind of plans often get delayed, I decided to bite the bullet. Personally, I won't be disappointed if the Max 2 blows the current Max out of the water. It will just make it all that much easier to justify the purchase, knowing that my wife would be more than happy to acquire my current Max. Of course, if Sony or Netronix also come out with new models that leave their current devices well and truly behind, that is something I will have to keep an eye on. |

I didn't know. That's quite unacceptable. If I knew pdf export was so bad, I'm not sure I would have bought the max.

You mean GoodNotes for iOS? I don't have an iPad/iPhone. Or do you mean the OSX app? Are there any other apps that are compatible with the annotation format? |
