Somebody call the waabulance. Harry hasn’t got his 9.7 screen yet.

Relax, October is only, what?, 7 months away…put a jar on your dresser and start dumping your daily pocket change in it. By Oct you'll have the full purchase price with enough left over for a big fat memory card and a leather case.


Now is the winter of our discontent…

Well if all goes according to the present plan (**please God**), I'll actually be moving to the Las Vegas area in a few months. So I might as well take a peak.

No reason why we should be, given that (I understand) it's going to be a Jinke device which Astak will license, just as they have done for the EZ Reader (please correct me, Robert, if that is incorrect!).

Astak will have two completely different lines. The Mentor line is Netronix based while the EZ Reader line is Jinke based. There are vast differences in these two devices and I doubt that the lines will ever be fully reconciled as to hardware differences or even software differences. It will be interesting to follow.

It will not be hard to order a 9.7 inch EZ Reader or Mentor when you live in Europe when they are released. There is the cost of freight to get it to you,
but our new website will work fine for Europe so the actual buying will be easy.
