Overall Review: This is clearly not designed for the same demographic as the more expensive E-Readers. It doesn't have a WiFi connection or a cute little screen at the bottom to let you browse the books you can download. But, conversely, it doesn't allow an evil and unnamed corporation to remotely delete the books you've downloaded, no matter how you've gotten them.
Pros: This is my first e-book reader and honestly, will probably be my last, unless this one wears out. If you want perfect picture and chart rendering then you need a laptop or at least a netbook, not an e-book reader. It puts the words clearly on the screen from an excellent array of formats, with adjustable font sizes and will even display the illustrations if there are any.
If you read the instructions fully, unlike me the firmware upgrade is a breeze. The controls are easy to master and switching between books is almost as easy as laying one down and picking up another. Loading and unloading books is as easy as moving files on your computer. This couldn't be much easier to use or more natural to read from. Also, the ear buds and carrying case are very nice accessories.
Cons: None, but it is important to note that the owner's manual is only located on the reader itself, not as a physical document. Unless this was just an oversight with my unit, it would probably be useful to have a printed manual included. Overall Review: Several people have mentioned battery life and not being able to power off the unit. If you go into the settings, from the main menu, you can set the reader to automatically power off after a period of time.
Pros: Fast and no flash page turning. Slim and comfortable in hand s. Love the three different ways to turn pages if I ever get another ebook reader, this will most likely be missed. Color scheme of external casing is much nicer and less obtrusive than the jetBook. Can be used while charging. Cons: So far battery life has not been too great. With an LCD screen I was not expecting much; however, the flashless screen was more important to me than fantastic battery life, as I keep this by mind bed mostly for nightly reading.
The only way I have figured to turn it off completely is to get something like a paper clip to press the reset button: Aluratek: standby is nice, but I'd love to save battery life and wait for a measly 2 minute bootup Overall Review: I'm not a big reader and this thing has me very excited about reading.
I think it's awesome that it can actually fit in one of my front pockets of a mildly loose fitting pair of jeans. Pros: Comes with 2gb sd card with great books included. Very easy to use. This is my 3rd ebook reader including a sony and the screen is the best so far. I read indoors, outdoors, cars, and on planes and perfect in every light. Able to use so many different file formats.
I use pdf and Word nearly everyday. Being able to listen to music while I read is another plus. Cons: When pull up bookmark list only shows marks in current book. Staying on the front of the Libre you will find a row of numbers from 0 through 9, along with letters on them that are used with a T9 method to enter letters, as needed.
Along the bottom is the power button and 3. There is nothing but the "hump" on the back. The Libre is pretty compact, but after trying out a friend's Sony Reader Pocket Edition I personally would look at that device for a smaller reader with nicer hardware.
The Libre is fairly solid, but it does feel cheaper than the Sony Reader. Page turning is pretty fast and you won't find the screen refreshing like it does on eInk displays so if that really bothers you then you might want to look at this device. I found that the screen was readable in low light conditions and in full sunlight.
I still think eInk displays look better, but this is definitely better than a color LCD for book reading. Battery life is worse on the Libre than on comparable readers due to the difference in screen technologies and battery life is important for the serious reader. The Libre is a decent ebook reader and if hardware cost is a major issue then you might want to take a look at it. You can't beat eInk for readability and the Kobo one has a display as clear and crisp as my Nook.
The entry price for ebook readers is falling and it is good to be an ebook reader fan at this time with lots of options available. Developers are in short supply. Here are the skills and programming languages employers need. Time for a Linux smartphone?
I've changed the way I charge my iPhone. You should, too. The painful shame of owning an Android phone. Windows Do these six things right away after you finish setup. To get you immediately on to reading e-books, it comes pre-installed with classics.
You can add more either by downloading manually or purchasing from ePub-supported stores. Aluratek is associated with eBooks. The power button, headphone jack, and the hand-strap loop are provided at the bottom of the device whereas the SD slot, mini USB port is covered with a rubberized flap which feels firm and covers the USB port.
In a nutshell, Libre Pro gives you the sense of a simple and comfortable e-reader which is a good alternative to the expensive and fancy e-readers consisting Wi-Fi or 3G connectivity.
