After my constant nagging about the piles of novels growing so high that not even WALLE will move them, my partner decided to go out and find herself an ebook reaer. What she brought home got my attention. It is a Migear Ebook reader. Capable of PDF< TXT< EPUB(best)<CHM< RTF< HTML. Mps, WMA, JPEG and BMP.

2 gig of internal memory expandable to 16 (microSD) I have been using for most of the day and plenty of life left in battery. LIPOs. Can be charged from mini usb and is COLOUR!!!LCD.800x400 reolution.

I thought of a use straight away..Loaded it with all the tech files and info on my K and took it out with me to shed today and it was usefull. No ore paper oil soaked ect.To keep it free from oil and other junk just put it into a clipseal bag!

The screen is backlit and readable sitting out of direct sunlight.(Black on white) You can rotate and zoom images and text.Also good for loading audio books and novels, tech journals for the camp at night . An absolute bargain locally too AUD $99 from BIG W, Dick Smith ect (woolworths )
Some pics of the display for those interrestred.

I often do that with the laptop but that gizmo takes it one step futher as you can hold it with 1 hand. Hmmmmm good thinking.

Something to take on the bike with you on trips???

hmm now theres a thought rene .....!!!

nice one alby ....cheers

ReneZ, I am going to use it for just that as well. Audio Books, All sorts of reading material, a lot of free eBooks online, tech journals ect. I am going to make a case similar to what i made for my old PDA some time back. An otter box with the front cut out and a thick piece of clear vinyl glued in with sikaflex (boonds to polythene). Yoou then cut foam to fit behind and around the device for padding and you can use it as normal through the vinyl cover. weather Proof.
