Anyone hear any updates? I still can't get e-reader store to respond to my emails. I've contemplated cancelling just due to the lack of response. I really don't care if it comes tomorrow or in a month, but a common courtesy reply would be professional.

Good e reader shop has 24 in stock and if I remember correctly, from the video they posted, shipping is within 48hrs.

EReader Store has been in touch - they are expecting their shipment into the warehouse this week, and ship them out to us shortly thereafter!

How and ever, they don't use Paypal, so that would mean entrusting them with your credit card details which is something I would be very wary of. I would also be very wary of any after sales service. They don't seem to have done too well by the few backers who actually received their own branded device. That would not encourage me to make a major purchase with them. |

I am still in contact with the nice people at Onyx International, and I will be selling the Onyx Boox Note on Amazon in Canada. And I will be looking for the best possible deals. But, I can still get a package of ten Onyx Boox for anyone who is interested. My e-mail is vrinkles at gmail dot com. Please let me know if you are down!
Oh, here is a slack invite for a slack I created for this very purpose: https://join.slack.com/t/vrinkles/sh...zNiODhmZjE1YjA Additional info: Ok, so far 3 individuals have been interested in this, and each of those individuals are Americans. So, ok! Let's see if I can't get these things to America!! So, Americans, please e-mail, pm, or go to the slack if you want to get in on this. The last quote I received was: Before VAT and shipping the cost of each individual unit was $330 American. It's a little more expensive to order from Russia, but Vat is included. I'm in contact with the Chinese sellers, not the Russian sellers. I have not calculated shipping and VAT- I am waiting for there to be ten people interested before I ask. Also, I am able to order directly from Onyx International off of Amazon. The deal they made with me is if I want, I can contact them directly and have my orders shipped to anywhere through Onyx International. The price might be a bit steeper, but the shipping is more reliable and Onyx Boox keeps their prices low. Edit: Good e-readers has a pretty simple deal with Onyx Boox- they sell the product on their site (at a marked up rate) and Onyx Boox fulfills their order through Amazon. Long story short- definitely cheaper to get your Onyx Boox through Amazon! Someone was asking- the Onyx Boox Note will be available on Amazon in Mid March. So, soon. Like, maybe the end of next week. They are still producing them. Only three people have approached me about my offer, so I really think the most cost effective way for folks to buy their e-readers is to get them off of Amazon. Should the time come and there is any confusion as to where to find it, I will hook you up with a link. Last edited by vrinkles; 03-09-2018 at 01:42 PM. Reason: American Buyers + Amazon dot ca |

My Boox Note at Ereader.store has gone into Preparing for Shipment status at last! Others might want to check theirs. Has anyone gotten hold of a suitable screen protector for it? I can't find anything which is really 10.3, most are 10.1

As for screen protectors, what about buying one for the Max and cutting it to size? |

The chief problem is, protectors are normally to be put on glass: which are good for e-ink screens? The process done by "Clear-Coat, Mobile Outfitters" for example involves a intermedate liquid and an "hairdryer" - is everything safe? Last edited by mdp; 03-10-2018 at 04:50 AM. |

And you attach random protectors? They are made for glass! No, it is required to understand which protectors are compatible with e-ink displays and what's put on them - at least, to find an amount of good experiences of people who have adopted protectors made for glass and state that they are fine on e-ink... Or some engineers that state that there is no difference.
