Can you surf the web with the T1?

Yes, you can. It also links from the book you are reading to Wikipedia. The browser has landscape orientation and can download files which is an improvement over the 950 browser.

DD is surfing the web happily w/her T1, she just checked her Facebook page and is now happily viewing one of her preferred manga sites. (landscape mode)

Which languages does it support?
(briefly scrolled through 5 pages, didn't see if that was mentioned)

adbosch · 10-03-2011, 04:25 AM

No email support, I suppose?

What do you mean by email support? I've checked my gmail using my 950.

It is running Android, although not "officially" announced.

It was conclusively answered in my opinion, but you don't have to take my word for it, just wait and see like everyone else who doesn't believe me

I've been able to download epubs from Feedbooks using the 950, but it doesn't add them to the library automatically. I had to shutdown and relaunch the device to get the 950 to see the downloads.

+1

Although a little more then a little disappointed.

Thanks, kolenka. I will have to try that on my 950. I picked up a T1 at Target yesterday. I was able to download a DRM'ed EPUB from my dropbox account successfully. I was also able to login to my Kobo account and download a book! The library book download process also worked smoothly. They go into a downloads folder. They auto-load right into your booklist. I didn't have much time to experiment further.

What's the big difference between "tapping" the screen, and hitting the PAGE FORWARD button?

Thank you, thank you. This mean the library books over Wifi should work in Sweden too. ( A couple of more steps, though)

Edit: Come think about it, why didn't Sony highlight the fact you can download DRM'd files and not just non-drm'd epubs and pdfs?
Or maybe I just missed it.

The location of the button.

SeaBookGuy · 10-03-2011, 12:37 PM

Fine

The "swipe" need only be a flick, not a sweeping movement, that takes about the same effort as an on-screen tap.

A question:

You folks who own T1's (or are getting one) - where do you store the stylus?

Fine.

If it takes about the same effort, then just make it a tap.
