Of course I dream of something with feature parity with the US and Eastern alternatives, but I am not interested in color or touch. Mostly care about format support and rendering.

    I own the InkPad Color 2. It runs on an, I guess, embedded Linux not Android. So no Android apps.

    You can upload your e-books through USB or download them e.g. through the PockeBook-Shop or the installed webbrowser.

      Not the OP, but interested anyways.

      For the PockeBook-Shop have a wide selection in a variety of languages? Does it mean I could buy an e-book from Amazon then upload it to the InkPad?

        Amazon usually has DRM, I’d suggest you find a DRM-free alternative, to ensure long-term access to your books.

        I know humble bundle books are usually DRM free.

          The problem that I find the most limiting is really availability of books. I read a lot and I am picky, I usually look for specific titles in many languages. I haven’t been able to find a real competitor to Amazon’s wide library yet (even if I don’t like it)
