Help - Eco Reader vs Eco Eclipse vs Kogan
Hi
2 weeks ago my bebook mini, which i loved, screen broke. According to Bebook Australia it costs $220 plus postage to fix, so i am thinking it is better value to just buy a new ereader. The bebook range is too expensive still at $379 so i have been looking at the similar models - eco reader and eco eclipse, i have also had a look at Kogan. The reason i have narrowed it down to these is as follows: - Multiple files (mainly have PDF, RTF and LIT) - wireless not necessary - less than $200 - has SD card slot I think i would prefer the eco eclipse (which is supposed to be the same as the mini) but it seems to have less file types, does anyone know why? Does anyone have any advise or suggestions for which reader i should get. Thanks Last edited by lala85; 10-08-2010 at 12:35 AM. |

My personal opinion, I would select the Eco Reader/Eclipse. Kogan does look ok but going through their product page recently to view specs of a netbook I wanted to buy some time ago, and it appears all support is effectively been dropped. DA Direct appear a very supportive company, and I doubt they will just drop support on their product. Now, Eco Reader or Eco Eclipse....well is the extra paid worth the extra screen size? I can't answer that for you. If you were happy with the 5" stick with the eclipse, if you ever felt like you'd have liked a slightly larger screen, go the Eco Reader. My 2 cents. |
