Kon-tiki

I noticed the Kon-tiki 7.8" reader on the Onyx website the other day. A version 2 with Android 10 is coming in the next few days. I hadn't seen either version of this reader before and there isn't any commentary about it here, as far as I can see. I gather that it's like the Nova, but without tablet/stylus functionality. Anyone used one of these before with thoughts about it?

It's actually on the onyxboox.com website (here) -- the site of Onyx's Russo-American distributor, who often offer variant models that Onyx doesn't offer directly. You appear to be correct that the lack of an inductive Wacom interface is the only difference, making it US$40 cheaper.
