Well I got my mitts on it at the weekend and was pretty un-impressed, this could be have been the "test" media put on the device, but if that is the case why pick such crap examples.
1. Page rotation.
Simply never worked, on either of the 4 documents it had been pre-loaded with
2. Reaction time.
I pressed the zoom button, nothing happened, I pressed zoom again, about 10 seconds later it did the first zoom, and about 3 seconds later went to the next zoom
3. Page turning,
Buttons on the bottom left and on the right hand side, neither of which felt comfortable or clear, even just a slight raising of the buttons on the right would have been enough, you had to push pretty hard anyway to get them to work (could have been the demo model being beaten up)
4. Zoom (3 levels).
3 Levels of zoom, wow I thought, until I actually used it, I had expected something like
* Normal size of a book print
* Childs type print
* Larger size again
But, what you actually get is (from my perspective remembering my vision isn't top notch anyway)
* Tiny, the kind of size print used in mobile phone contracts
* A little smaller than normal book size (when compared to six different actual books around the e-reader)
* A few points larger than a normal book size
I was hoping I could use this to read without glasses, as I can read childrens books who use larger fonts I expected something like that, but obviously I'd need to turn the pages more often reading a normal book
5. Contrast
I'd read all about it looking like paper, yet an open book next to it was so much clearer to read compared to the mid-grey background and not jet black font, I'm oretty suprised given all I'd read, it didn't suffer with any reflection issues which was as expected, but the difference in contrast was really poor
Overall
3.5/10
I do still really like the idea of it, but the demo model was either so poorly configured or the device just poor I've no idea what else to look at
