Trivial and immediate: there is (there has been) a toggle icon in the status (and control) bar at the top of the device.

Where did you find the info about the update? ereader.store or boox.com does not have it. I wonder whether Android 6 would be ever ported back to the older devices. In the mean time I was thinking about downloading the firmware for Max2 and hack with it a bit.

I know that Max2 has a different CPU so the firmware cannot be used on previous models but where did you get such general statement that the CPU of Max does not support Android 6? My guess is that even if there are some features required by the Android they can be skipped (faked) as they are not relevant for the ereader - for example NFC...

I might, however, be persuaded to get a 10.3" device, depending on the specs and the software experience. At the moment, I'm thinking of just waiting to see if Remarkable will come out with a second generation model. |

The "Max mini"!
About the SD-card: yes, it would certainly have come handy, but I (for one) need the device for operation, not for storage. It has enough space to create selections. By the way: if pressed, one could use a portable device for storage - e.g. a phone with a 250GB SD extra - and a BT bridge. Shipment: I confirm the change of status, awaiting shipment now. |
