After less than 6 months, my Iliad began to fail. It will jump 15 to 20 pages at a time, no longer connect to my PC and the battery life is down to 5 hours from 15 hours.
iRex is stonewalling me about the repairs and ignores my repeated questions. Never buy anything from iRex.
slow as hell. besides, what is the big deal with the wi-fi? it's like a magic word, such saying "it's the best stuff in the face of the world". wi-fi is really unnecesary. you buy an EBOOK device for READING your docs. some naive people buy shitty books on internet and "that" is the usage for the marvel of wi-fi. nice. you SPEND about 600 bucks and then 10 bucks per book, nice, huh?
If I have this, I would download ebooks into it from a NAS that I have at home so the Wi-Fi is useful for some people. You can also, as you say, buy books from the internet. You may not find this useful to you but it is for a lof of people.
If you think it's not useful for you, you can buy the Iliad Book Edition, it doesn't have Wi-Fi.
I bought the 2nd edition, and it's way faster than the one in this demo! And the page refreshes in one time instead of the weird two times I see on this video.
