Boyue T63/Shine update (sort of)
There's been no news of this since its original (somewhat ambiguous) announcement back in June, so I decided to email Boyue about it asking if there was any further information about it (e.g. release date or specs) available.
The response I got back was clearly from someone for who English is not their first language, and was that nothing will be forthcoming until October (whether that will be the release, or just an announcement, is unclear). Somebody who's a potential retailer or distributor might get more information than this potential end-buyer. I'm still looking at it as the likely best opportunity to get the latest technology in an open-system ereader. |

Thanks. I just did another Google search a few days ago with disappointing results. I missed the T62+ at Banggood and have been waiting for the T63.

Ridibooks Paper (http://paper.ridibooks.com/Intro) was launched already in Korea, is seen as customized T63.

@helen19770707
Has anyone posted the contents of the build.prop file of this device there? It's a text file that could be found under the root directory ./system/ on Android OS. |

As October has come and gone, I followed up with Boyue. Their response was:

He tried to remove Ridibooks Paper from 'cover case', not 'original packaging case'. (I saw he's post in Naver ebook cafe(forum).) That official cover case is rather too tight and there's other reports of opened up body while removing cover case too. [Links to ROM images removed - didn't seem to be an official site. The Mods.] Last edited by pdurrant; 11-30-2015 at 06:42 AM. |

Whether it was in transit, or taking off the cover, it seems to imply a poorly designed chassis if it comes apart this easily. I think I'll hold off until Boyue gets past such 'teething problems' in their new chassis design.

Quick followup: I asked Boyue again about the release date for the T63. They replied:
