Jointech JE100 - e-book with LCD display

Can an e-book without a display based on e-ink be successful today? Jointech believes it can. Oh well.

In the reader JE100 used ordinary touch LCD display. On the one hand, the Jointech JE100, compared to the traditional “readers,” strains the eyes more and has less battery life, on the other hand, it is pleasing with vibrant colors and additional features.

According to the mind, this machine should be called not an e-book, but a PDA, but who needs PDAs now? But e-books - fashionable and most importantly, well-promoted product.

Characteristics of the new items are:

Processor: 400 MHz;
Memory: 128 MB of flash memory and 64 MB of RAM;
Display: 7 inches;
System: Windows CE 5.0;
Battery: 3-6 hours of use, depending on the intensity of use.

The device can play music, scroll through movies, and also allows you to edit documents and install any of dozens of programs for reading. In addition, Jointech JE100 supports Transflash memory cards with a capacity of up to 4 GB and is equipped with two USB ports, one of which acts as a host, and the second serves to connect peripherals, for example, a keyboard.

In general, I said - the PDA, especially the battery pumped up. How much the book will cost is still unknown, but I think it’s not very interesting by and large.
