Gestern BenQ, heute Aluratek – und wie so oft im Leben muss der unbekanntere Hersteller nicht das schlechtere Produkt haben.
Zwar hinkt auch der Libre eBook Reader Pro den Spitzenmodellen mit Doppeldisplay und/oder Tastatur in Sachen Ausstattung hinterher, kompensiert das aber beim Preis.
Das 5-Zoll-Display nutzt ePaper-Technologie, eine 2GB-SD-Karte wird mitgeliefert, und wer mehr Speicherplatz benötigt, kann per Karte auf bis zu 32GB ausbauen.
Der Libre eBook Reader pro kostet um die 180 Dollar, wobei man lobend erwähnen sollte, dass auf der 2GB-Karte bereits 100 Bücher gespeichert sind, und zwar nicht nur Klassiker wie Wizard of Oz und Moby Dick, sondern auch Neues wie der unlängst verfilmte Roman The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Sehr schön.. wenn das so weiter geht wirds interessant.
Firlefanz und schnickschnack brauch ich auf einem EBookreader nicht.
Eine vernünftige anzeige, einen Speicherslot und eine Akkulaufzeit von ca 10 stunden reichen mir.
Angezeigt werden müssten lediglich die normalen Buchformate inkl. pdf und txt.
Doppeltes Display ? Wozu?
Internet? ok, um direkt Bücher zu kaufen.. brauch ich nicht, mach ich per pc
GPRS/UMTS? Firlefanz.
Gespeicherte Bücher oder nicht. Bei solchen Preisen rollen sich einem doch die Fußnägel hoch. Lieber gleich ein Asus Netbook für 300 kaufen und mehr machen als nur lesen…
schenken wir der sache mal einen kompletten überblick:
