Wouldnt it be possible to do the same through an iPod or iPod Touch? Given that the joojoo has no keyboard or apps, there isnt much of an advantage except for the screen dimensions.
- thalur 17y agoBut a larger screen is (potentially) well worth having. I find my iphone is a little on the small side for serious web browsing - its good for the occasional wikipedia hunt, but its not particularly pleasant to read large amounts of text on.
- DrJokepu 17y agoWell I've got a G1 which is very similar in this respect to the iPhone (although the touchscreen is a bit less responsive and the config is slower) and in my experience it's quite a painful experience to read books on it. The screen is very small and generally it isn't as much fun as reading a dead tree book. Also, it can't read Microsoft Reader .lit files (which is a very common e-book format) so I would prefer something Windows based.
- nwatson 17y agoi use my G1 to read news and articles everywhere ... when awake in the middle of the night, while eating lunch, at a coffee shop, etc. You can't beat it for convenience, I suppose in a few years when my eyesight gets worse I'll need to rethink this.
- dagw 17y agoFor a potential reading pad I'd say that screen size is pretty huge advantage, especially if you are reading texts that also contain images. If there is a pdf reader for the joojoo I might actually be interested.
- astine 17y agoHang it on the wall in the kitchen and use it as a digital bulletin board. I've been thinking of a product that could use a prepackaged webserver on the users home network, (or a or an Internet service) to provide a calendering and home organization service on the a users home system and this would make an ideal interface for a kitchen/bathroom/hallway. If only it were at the old promised price-point.
