I like reading on e-ink, my kindle just keeled over but want to get out from under the Amazon bs. Anything that won’t have me fucking with a laptop is a bonus.

    Looks cool, how do you get books onto it? Other documents? I don’t want to mess with having to plug stuff into a computer or something if I want to read a pdf

      It has a browser, so you can download files directly

      Edit: It also has wifi and bluetooth so you can send files to it from a phone, for example

        These seem like the way to go but they are crazy expensive. I might have to wait for a sale. Thanks for the input!

      Just to clarify the other reply: you connect both devices to the same network and then visit a specific URL on the sending device. You can then receive the document on the Boox by sending via that localhost site.
