errata: The Onyx BOOX M96 - 9.7" has just 1200x825 pixels as written on the box (actually in Polish it has 1280x825). That's indeed VERY low in DPI compared my various Kindles, and yet this is a honestly engineered PDF reader - beating all what Amazon has in the PDF department for 2-column academic papers. Despite its low DPI, which is its major flaw... I love sending HTML pages to my kindles for proper reading, and regret that even with Calibre most tech PDFs are just too small, greyish low contrast for reading. The Sony DPS has 2x the resolution (still insufficient by 10x to compete with paper) and 2.5x the price, while unable to cope with anything else than PDF. Kindles and Kobos HD have nearly 300dpi, though too small and restricted to their own format and a poor WWW experience. It's the 1st time that i praise a reader that's neither high DPI (blame the eInk monopoly for stagnation in this field), nor of highly polished (pun intended) quality, nor cheap (at $350 is 3-4x more than sundry Kindles/Fire), nor easy to use for the common iCrowd. Yet the M96 proves that a generic Android with decent PDF rendering and supporting all the ePub, mobi/azw, MSO files is doable... even in monochrome and lacking video. I'm glad i bought it against all odds and specs, as support of honest engineering and risk taking companies. Its basics are right, it's a device for geeks, students, nerds and pros willing to accept all the compromises enumerated above and in emp_zealoth's post (+1) in return for sparing their eyes from glowing/glaring LCDs and OLEDs. With about 10x the current resolution for a 13" panel with perhaps 3-4 colors, this could become in a few years the ultimate ereader and paper replacement.
