6" EZ Reader Plus Now On Sale

EZ Read Fans,

Many of you have been waiting for the new 6" EZ Read Plus, and I'd like to officially announce that the device is now for sale on our website!

http://astak.com/product.asp?serial=EB-06EZ

It's faster, supports more formats than ever, and is sleek and light with a fabulous grayscale screen. If you haven't yet purchased an EZ Reader, this would be an excellent choice. We still have our classic looking leather case, earbuds, and an unholy amount of storage (16 GB!).

It is priced at $189, and comes ready to support all of your favorite eBooks from any bookstore you choose. Choice is important, especially to me, which is one of the reasons I love the EZ Reader.


On a side note and just for the fun of it, I wrote a highly scientific book recommendation quiz on our Facebook based on your favorite color. If you have time to kill, it might just give you the name of your next favorite book!

-Jenifer

Hi Jenifer, the link to firmware on the EZ Reader Plus page is not for this device. It is for the older 6" EZ Reader Basic.

The device for sale already has the latest edition of Firmware available on the EZ Reader. We don't have a new Firmware download because there has not been any updates to the already brand-new Plus.

Still not available for international sales? Can't connect from the link you provided. My Opera just don't respond with the connecting link to the international check-out page.

There should be a banner on www.astak.com that links to the product if you can't connect. Essentially, any 6" EZ Reader will be now be a "Plus" edition, so no matter what link you follow to purchase, it will be the latest model.

In that case, you *may* want to look at this page at Astak.com.

OR, maybe your sales policies have changed?

Yes, you have international order page for EZ-Reader. I've got the link from Robert:
http://www.astak.com/ezreader/step1.asp

There's "6" EZ Reader in Black" $189. So this is the "Plus"? Not the Mentor? I do not want the old Mentor. And the sales page is really confusing.

Policies haven't changed, I was just informed wrongly by a coworker. eBook specialist mistake!

Yes, I am aware. However, there is a link on the information page described in your previous post. Follow it yourself to see it, that does indicate that there is a firmware upgrade available. This link should be removed. There are too many confusing things on the site already.

Sorry but I don't understand what's really NEW about the product.

Is this the same old one except the firmware upgrade?
All I can see is a dodgy picture.

It has an Epson controller (instead of Apollo), a 400MHz cpu (vs 200MHz), SDHC (instead of just SD/MMC), 64MB RAM (instead of (32MB), USB 2.0 (instead of 1.1).

If you look at the eBook Matrix on the Wiki and compare the Hanlin V3 (old EZ Reader) to the V3+ (EZ Reader Plus) you can compare all the differences...

Perhaps it is the same thing DaleDe is talking about, but what's with the "Get your Adobe Digital Editions Firmware here" button on the EZ Plus page? Why wouldn't ADE already be on the unit?
