Anyone knowing who is the original manufacturer of this ereader?
Hello,
I'm trying to identify who is the original manufacturer of this ereader because I want to find clones and then reviews / youtube movies etc. I'm seriously considering buying one because, at least from the technical specifications, it looks very promising.
Anyone knowing something about it?!

Looks similar to the Amazon Kindle, but as shown on the casing, it is made by Prestigio. Here is a link http://www.prestigio.com/products/eB...aders/3-series
This is actually the first time I've heard of it, but they look quite okay. Plus they apparently also have their own ebook store.

Yes I know, but Prestigio is only a reseller, like so many others in Europe. Prestigio is based in Cyprus and mostly sells its across Eastern Europe and Russia/Ukraine.

Edit : The reader is made by Delyca a Chinese company

Gotten from here
http://www.the-digital-reader.com/20...rs-to-line-up/

Hope this helps!

And here is the page from the company's website
http://www.delyca.com/index/viewArticle.php?id=1122

This ereader is actually something! It's running Android (well, the original one from Delyca anyway!) Only 1.6 though. But I've never heard of an e ink reader running android. it's even got the Pearl Screen as well.

Thank you, Fortissimo. From the pictures it looks like the ereader made by Delyca, except that the Delyca's ereader runs on Android while the Prestigio reader is based on Linux. I will try to find out more about this company, Delyca, maybe I can find how reliable are their OEM manufactured products.

I saw one Prestigio reader live for a few minutes and I liked it very much. It was very responsive and the page turn was fast. It had wifi and a touch screen. Alas it was the Prestigio Libretto PER5062B.
