Kindle: Amazon's 6" Wireless Reading Device (Latest Generation)

After less than 6 months, my Iliad began to fail. It will jump 15 to 20 pages at a time, no longer connect to my PC and the battery life is down to 5 hours from 15 hours.

iRex is stonewalling me about the repairs and ignores my repeated questions. Never buy anything from iRex.

Oh! what a technology. You can see the progress. That’s all you can see. Progress. It is ridiculously slow and expensive. Never buy this product. You will probably go nuts waiting to read. My advice is, buy another product or just wait a couple of months or a year.

This is the best eBook reader currently available, if I had the money to spend on one I’d have it already, but as it is I’m waiting ’till the prices of eInk devices go way down. Of course, by then this probably won’t be the best you can get, but considering this is one of the few companies that’s still making an effort on eBooks and having released the SDK and source I’m betting this will continue to be a viable option unlike the Sony reader that will be done for when Sony stops supporting it.

I have been using one of these for about 2 months. First of all, the software is very poorly done. It does not handle .pgf files well, nor can it play mp3 files.

In addition, the flip bar is a perfect device for carrying dirt into the device. That bar also is prone to failure. Already, mine will sometimes advance as many as 20 or more pages at random times. The start and change time aer very slow for the processor. I think more software problems cause this.

computers have been out forever, these things are just a bunch of slow, bad resolution devices.. they should sell for $15-$20 and I bet they will in a couple of years..

I do want one though… Guess china is getting my cash once again… when will they learn…

E-ink needs a few more years of research.

never mind the refresh rate of e-ink displays. It’s text for crying out loud. What do you care if it flashes then you change the page? Oh and changing the page is actually faster than turning a page in a book ( good enough for me ). The problem with this device is that it has an weird page size and the thing is VERY expensive. You can get Sony Reader for $299 and this is 650 euro. Tough sell, don’t you think?
