Perhaps the first thing that struck - this is the time of work up to two weeks. The extremely low power consumption of the Eee Reader is due to the electrophoretic display manufactured using SiPix technology, which consumes energy only when you want to change the image on the screen.

Supported formats already, probably, no surprise. Eee Reader reads various formats of electronic documents, including PDF, TXT, ePub, HTML and FB2, can work with compressed files in ZIP and CBZ formats, images in JPEG, GIF, PNG and BMP formats, as well as MP3 music files. To listen to music, there are built-in stereo speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack.



The control of the book is carried out mainly by means of a touch screen. However, if this is not possible (for example, frost), that is, the page turning keys. The built-in memory of the device is 2Gb, if necessary, it can be expanded using a memory card.

A good addition to the reader will be Wi-Fi and 3G (optional). And if you want to join the world literary classics, say, sitting behind the wheel, then this can be done without even being distracted from the road and without exposing other road users to danger. To do this, there is a voice voice mode texts. A reader in a pleasant female voice will read books for you out loud and you just have to listen.



But as they say, it's better to see once ...
So that it becomes quite clear what a new device is, watch the video:
