Hey Booxter quick question, Does the note 10.3 have the same software features as the max 2 such as the side note features ( I did not see that on your site i might have over looked). Also, shipping to the U.S. would there be any import tax or fees?; I can't seem to find accurate or exact information online. Thank you.

Yes thanks just saw it. One thing I am curious about, for me the side note is the most important feature, is the side note compatible with a pdf? I think i saw him switching to a regular book when he opened the side note.

As I understand it right unfortunately side notes are possible in all other 10 formats but not in pdf.

That is a bummer. I hope they include the compatibility for PDF in a future update. I'm a college student so most of the articles and text books I use is in pdf. That would have been amazing, having a text book on one side and note taking on the other. Thanks for your response Matilo

Yes i usually do right on the edges. Currently i Have a pdf notebook one tab and articles or books on the other. I switch back and forth on the M96. Matilo, Do you know where i can find the formats compatible? I want to see if djvu is one of them; If djvu is then i can just convert the pdfs into that format.

I can't speak for the 10"3 Note, but on the Max 2 the split-screen notes are available in PDF - actually I'd be surprised if they were available in, say, epub format, since epub doesn't really have pages (page count changes with chosen font size).
The side notes appear a little buggy, though - sometimes the whole side note disappears from the screen, even though it's still in memory. I'm not sure what causes this (it might be because I sometimes touch the left side of the screen - I'm left-handed and so while writing on the right half, my palm will naturally touch the left half) |

Just placed my preorder for the Note. In the cold winter months, one needs something positive to look forward to.

I am not going to give in. Maybe Netronix or even Amazon will put out a Mobius device with a microsd slot
Edit: I meant Dasung, not Netronix. Then there is Boyue Last edited by M4H35H; 01-14-2018 at 12:33 AM. |

Thanks Philippe D. that is a relief i am really looking forward for the side note feature. On the other forum, i think max 2 issues, Booxter mentioned that their might be the implementation of rotation as in side note being on the opposite being left handed friendly.

I like what I am seeing with the Max 2, but think the Note would be a more versatile size. I can use my original Max for those times when I want/need to have a full page view of a document. The Note will be much better for carrying about. I especially like that they have made a proper cover for it as opposed to simply a felt sleeve. If a better device eventually comes out later, I can always sell the Note and upgrade. Of course, I will take a bit of a financial hit if that occurs, but I will also have had the use of the device during that time. |
