Do not buy - should be better options

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2011

Verified Purchase

I purchased the above item at Christmas. Not very familiar at the time with e-readers but this one has seemed mediocre at best. Then. when I needed technical support because it could not read adobe digital books (although it was supposed to) which just now became available from our library, I then found out online there was a firmware upgrade that fixed this problem, but no instructions were included. Viewsonic USA told me they could not help me because I had been sold by J&R through Amazon, and unknown to me, a European market item, not a USA product.- ie a gray market item, and they had no additional information on the upgrade. I was told to call Europe but that could be an expensive attempt and this thing may not be worth it. J&R customer service was not very helpful even though they sold me (improperly, I think) a gray market item with out telling me this. Look elsewhere and get a product that works or at least can be upgraded as needed.

AS to the product itself, I now know there are better products on the market and would have trouble recommending this even if I had been properly sold a USA market version. The screen is mediocre, the unit is sluggish and sometimes cuts off the last page of a book completely unless you switch to the smallest fonts- practically unreadable. As stated it does not support all the e-books it/they claim. I think this is an abandoned product as well at least in this country.

This was slow and didn't have a pen or touch screen. It was very hard to get settings changed. Hard to download new books. I would not buy this again I would spend more money to have a better product. The instruction book didn't give any help other then how to charge it. I was disappointed in this product.

Not worth the money

Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2010

I bought this product on sale from J&R and plan on returning it after only one day. What I wanted was an ebook reader that would be easy to use for my mother, who is 67 and has arthritis and mobility problems with her hands. She also is a serious technophobe so I wanted a reader with a simple to use interface for her.

This was neither of those things. For starters, the instructions that come with the product are minimal, and loading books are slow, really slow. I could run to the restroom and come back and the book would still be loading. And this was an epub I was loading at the time. It's even worse for pdf's.

Most of the books I have for my mother are in epub and pdf format. The pdf format was painfully slow and never displayed width of the book, so to read she would have had to scan back and forth for every line. I know my mother wouldn't want that.

I've owned two other readers, the Nook (which reformatted the pdf files so you could read and resize the text but removes the images, and is a nice product overall but breaks too easily) and my current one, Augen's The Book (which flips to landscape mode when you enlarge the pdf files instead, so you can keep the images and read the book as intended). I am going back and getting her an Augen.

For the price you pay you get great Value, comes with a case

For the price you pay you get great Value, comes with a case. non touch screen, buttons are non responsive at times. processing speed of the device can be slow at times. page turning is not as quick as I would have wanted for my super fast brain. if your looking to flip through books quickly this device could hang a bit. but all in all its a great value, ok product. I liked it.

Very slow!!

Reviewed in Canada on January 29, 2014

Was slightly disappointed with this reader. Takes much time for it to load into books and is very slow when turning the device on and off. But for the price it's not a bad investment. More for a starter reader then anything else... if you are looking for something quick and reply able stick with Sony or Kobo.

This was purchased to serve a non-technical Senior & it seems to be a fairly good fit.

Clean interface, simple operation.
Start-up/shut-down are almost immediate, which saves time and power.
Not all books display in center -of-screen- this could be that the proper format was not d-loaded or have not figured out all features. Instruction manual could be more helpful.
