The Pocketbook InkPad 3 (also called the PocketBook 740 in some places) is a new 7.8-inch ebook reader that I've posted about a couple of times recently. Unfortunately it's not sold in the US anywhere but it is available in other parts of the world. There's a listing for the InkPad 3 on eBay fromRead more

The Touch HD 3 e-reader is one of the best mid level devices that Pocketbook has ever released. It has a very interesting design with the brushed aluminum and manual page turn buttons.

The Pocketbook line of e-readers does not lock you into a walled garden and plays nice with the majority of ebook formats out there, such as PDF, EPUB, DJVU, FB2, FB2.ZIP, DOC, DOCX, RTF, PRC, TXT, CHM, HTM, HTML, MOBI, ACSM. Pocketbook pays a license feeRead more
