I have a 10" e-ink device with 1200x825px which is perfectly fine for A4/letter-designed PDFs, so I'd say the resolution should be fine. I also have a 10" notebook, and the readability is considerably worse at about the same resolution, so I guess e-ink resolutions are not really comparable with lcd resolutions (the pixel layout is quite different: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3090/2286311679_f98bdba47f_m.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3090/2286311679_f98bdba47f_m....).

- adiM 13y agoDon't know about the GP, but I have an iRex DR1000 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Reader_1000 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Reader_1000) which was perfectly sized for reading A4/letter papers. But it is bulky and has no wireless connectivity.
- bildung 13y agoI have an Onyx BOOX M92: https://onyx-boox.com/productsinfo/onyx-boox-m92-black-pearl/ https://onyx-boox.com/productsinfo/onyx-boox-m92-black-pearl... It did cost 300€/420$ a year and a half ago. The alternative at that time was the Pocketbook Pro 912 (http://www.pocketbook-int.com/de/products/pocketbook-912 http://www.pocketbook-int.com/de/products/pocketbook-912) at around the same pricepoint, but that seemed less open (technically both run Linux, but Pocketbook didn't publish their modified sources).
