Hi,
So I need to buy an e-reader. I used to have a Pocketbook 622. It was a decent device with epub support, but had some caveats:
- had some trouble with djvu outlines and page numbers
- scrolling some PDFs with hw keys stuttered at times
- it used a proprietary format for the dictionaries, which could be converted only using a Windows binary
What is a must:
- hardware keys for scrolling the pages
- e-ink/e-paper - I don't want an LCD/LED in any case
What is really nice to have
- epub support
- stardict dictionary support
- good PDF support (LaTeX documents are usually rendered to PDF, unfortunately)
Appreciated:
- hackable, root access, ssh, etc.
I have nothing against Android in this case. TBH, Android is a system designed perfectly for e-readers, not mobile phones.
What would you suggest?
