Good E-Reader

“The Wave is an embarrassment. Devices north of $300 should not perform as poorly as this one does, or at the very least they should give you huge manufacturer-specific perks like 1 TB expandable storage (Meebook), or Multiple speed modes (Bigme, Onyx Boox), amazing audio experience (Hisense), or a flawless e-reading experience with minimal ghosting (Amazon Kindle). The Mobiscribe does absolutely none of that and less. The unit is unusable. I’m not trying to be critical, I’m more shocked, that the industry has the stiffest competition we have ever seen in the history of e-readers or e-notes. And this thing is performing like it’s 2014 November.”
