The PocketBook InkPad Color is a great-looking color ebook reader, but page turns are slow and it has almost no support for US content.Read more
The Pocketbook InkPad Color is the poster child of modern E INK color technology. This e-reader is absolutely the best one currently available and really appeals to an international audience. There are over 25 supported languages, making it easy for most people to use and get tremendous value. Hardware The Inkpad Color it utilizing the second generation E INK Kaleido color e-paper technology. On a fundamental level, it still can only display 4,096 colors and 100 PPI, which is the same as the previous generation. So what has changed? E INK developed a new color filter array which dramatically improvesRead more

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
Pocketbook is one of those e-reader brands that do not lock you into a specific ecosystem and allow you to load in your own ebook collection or load in titles purchased at other retailers.

Pocketbook Touch: Just Another Ebook Device? When our favourite distributor AlTech took on a new line of products from Pocketbook and sent me one of the top models, the Touch, I had to wonder where the market for e-book readers is going to take us in the coming years. With the proliferation of large smartphones and tablets, some of them as cheap as dedicated e-book readers, will there still be a market for the likes of Pocketbook Touch?Read 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 big selling points is the audio functionality, a color temperature glowlight system, Bluetooth and is the fact it is completely waterproof. 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.
