Pixelar Hanlin V3

PROs:

- The Pixelar Hanlin Ebook Reader is open to many formats, so you will be able to read almost every kind of readable file

- Its open architecture makes possible to choose among several firmwares; something like being able to try different Operating Systems

- The Pixelar model has the best price I found for the Hanlin Reader, and the guys at Pixelar are nice and ready to help you, even more than the Terms Of Service state. They also offer it in an interesting good-value Bundle option

- With the last firmware, the PDF documents are surprisingly readable. something that was very much complained about

- The technology is perfect for the eye and for battery lifetime

CONs:

- The technology is early, slow and, in my opinion, still expensive

- Some of the document types still has important problems: .doc don't look good at all, and .html or .lit present problems with special characters like . But normally you can convert almost any format to another more readable-one. Everybody have their favorite

If you look for a not-so-expensive open-format Ebook Reader, the Pixelar Hanlin eReader is, in my opinion, the best choice. Good value, good service, and almost any book at the cost of google search.

I recently-2 months ago bought a Hanlin V3 throught the Mye-reader website.

I was imopressed by speed of delivery and packaging of product.

The Hanlin V3 has been around for a little while now,the main advantage of this is the known quality and reliability along with the fact that the bugs have been ironed out.--my friend who bought a V5 with a 5" screen from Bebook has had a nightmare.I dont know why Bebook launched a 5" model..why would i want a smaller screen??

the formats the V3 hanlde are numerous...and with the pdf or mobi drm option covered.

Product looks are ok..I would have preferred a silver colour like the original sony-but hey-whatever.

I cannot live without this now..and the leather thick cover was a good investment.
