The Astak EZ Reader is the most lightweight, small and thin eBook Reader ever introduced to North America. This product has been 8 years in development, and is the best basic eBook Reader on the market. We have pre-loaded eight free classic eBooks. Want more? Our website offers links to 27,000 free eBooks! It is a whole new way to read books and listen to stereo music because it uses an equalizer and gets amazing battery life! At 7.2” long, 4.7” wide and 0.3” thick, it feels really good in your hand.
The ergonomics are perfect! Weighing less than 7 ounces, this is an eBook Reader that you can hold for long periods without getting tired. The E-Ink, E-Paper screen makes for reading with no eye strain, and it doesn’t use power while you read. Our eBook Reader only uses energy while turning pages or listening to your stored MP3 music. At 800x600 pixels, it has a Vizplex screen that is very high resolution, so that it reads well in low light environments. It displays 8,000 pages of text on a single charge, and can be charged either via a USB cable or via power adapter. The battery is easily replaced with one screw if ever needed.
This EZ Reader is intuitive and easy to use. When you turn it on, it takes you directly to your book library. Choose the book you want, or your most recently started book, by hitting the corresponding numbered button. Go forward or back one page at the touch of a single button>>> or hold the down the button to advance 10 pages at a time. Of course it bookmarks easily! The numbered keys take you anywhere you want to go with a minimum of delay, and if you make any mistake, it has a button to take you back to the page before. You can even use "go to page" to jump immediately to where you want to be.
The product supports many languages: English, French, Spanish, Italian, Big 5 Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. Font sizes are adjustable and it can display both vertically and horizontally. It comes with free ear buds and a nice crush-resistant “leather” case. It has a standard 3.5mm earphone jack, and is ideal for noise-cancelling headphones. We expect to release the eBook in colors such as: Black, Pearlescent White, Electric Blue, Silver, and a Metallic Red!
Coming in March is the EZ Reader Plus and EZ Reader PRO, offering the lightning fast Epson controller and such things as Touchscreen, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SCRATCH (write directly onto the screen), and /or 3G wireless capabilities. In August, we hope to release the EZ Reader BigBook, with a 9.7 inch FLEXI screen and a host of new features. This device will "READ TRUE" on an 8 x 10 item. Also, new accessories are on their way to make your reading pleasure even better: LED lighting, special leather cases, and much more!"
