That's good to hear. I have no problem with a device vendor focusing on just making sure their device works well, as long as they're not trying to close it off and actively working against external developers. I'd heard stuff like Kindle blows physical fuses so that one can't install older firmware and stuff like that so they actively prevent users from having control of their device. I have no desire to be a customer of such types of vendors.
- teekert 4y agoI have a pocketbook touch hd3 [0]. It's nice, tbh I feel that my Kindle Keyboard (died after 10 years) was higher quality, mainly because the buttons on the hd3 can move a bit. Other than that it's a nice device, it can read all formats and has a feature to make the front light more red.
