April 29, 2011 at 14:54New model of the reader ABC n618
On Thursday in Interfax, a new model of the electronic reader ABC code n618 was introduced.
This ends the official part, and the unofficial part begins with a photo review of the device.
Let's start with the box. The box turned out beautiful, as our designer said.
But the main thing is not the box, but what is inside.
Here is such an appearance.
We open. Here is such an accessory for a sofa, kitchen or subway.
The end view is the power button, it is also the Wi-Fi power button. Connector for microSD, headphones and miniUSB.
Immediately on the main thing. What's New: The
screen has become larger - 6 inches, as well as whiter and more contrast.
The most important technical innovation- touch screen type wakom. The screen, if it is not touched with a stylus, falls asleep in order not to eat the battery, and when you press it for the first time, it wakes up, and the second time you already press what you need. The touch screen expands the control capabilities of this device - a lot of buttons are displayed on the screen.
The stylus, by the way, snaps into the case and does not drop out anywhere.
Wifi module. There is a built-in Opera - it automatically scales sites for mobile devices. For example, if there is a mobile version of the site, then it will automatically load it. You can see the mail, not only look, but also reply to letters. You can also immediately edit the text.
Leafing through.It has become even faster. Just enough so that the eye noticed turning over, but not too long to get bored. Scrolling really fast. Do not believe? Here's a video:
You can by the way flipping and a stylus. But if you are not comfortable using the stylus, you can only control the buttons.
Easy to remove from cover. Very comfortable and quick latch.
There are many more technical details that are very important. A
more convenient menu has become - no need to scroll back and forth throughout the folder. On the device is Win CE 5.0. This is so that any interested developer can make or polish a program for a book. The book supports transfers and viewing drawings. There is an initial letter that you can enable or disable. Supports a bunch of formats. Here we will not list all that sea of formats that the reader opens, but let's say for sure - Dock and RTF opens. Open files from archives without problems.
The app is charging via USB. And so that a person every time when connected to a PC does not jerk with it like a USB flash drive, we made this option. If a person simply connects the device to a PC, he will simply be charged, and to connect the reader as a USB flash drive in the settings, you need to check the "Auto connect USB" (in the photo below).
The sound is not bad. You can listen to audiobooks peacefully.
You can translate foreign words on the fly. You can work with dictionaries, load them, for example dictionaries from Lingvo. While reading, you can immediately see the translation of the word, you can also convert dictionaries for this book yourself.
Can be read with right and left hands.You just need to turn the device over. Of course, it’s more convenient that there would immediately be buttons and under the left hand, but they would not sculpt more buttons, as this would make the device more bulky.
And most importantly - the cost. It will cost about 1880 UAH. This is about 235 dollars.
UPD: price comparison with competitors is removed because prices are constantly changing.
As they say, use Wellcome.
Discussions about the future of electronic and simple books, copyright, and more
Previously, people wrote on birch bark or clay tablets, but now, as a medium, it will be an e-Inc, or there will be something similar - this reader is the grandson of clay tablets. This reader is only a tool. And he refers to what publishers should do - copyright protection. This exacerbates the problems of the electronic payment system. books. In our opinion, one of the main problems is micropayments for e-books, often more than half of this money goes to payment operators, and not to book authors. Regarding the future development of email. books can generally be said - it’s clear that the future lies with them, the paper book is dying out as a carrier, but it will remain as a respected monument, such as a movie, but the theater still remains, though it’s not so massive anymore.
We want to take into account all constructive and useful wishes from users of the product.
