@freemo yeah, the last ereader i looked at "locked" itself until an update was installed. i don't want to have to install updates to read a book.
what i really need is a reader application, web browser and a file browser which speaks to samba shares. i don't want to fiddle with sd cards or cables :)
i know that e-ink has muted colors, but i don't need that feature anyway - the only thing i can think of are comics, which i rarely read :) do you have a specific use for colors, or is it just nice to have?
