I do not like the thickness it adds to the phone. I would be interested in purchasing it in stand-alone mode - not as a cover. You would have phone in your pocket and you could read from this little device. Another point I do not like is that it only pairs with a very limited number of [very expensive] phones. |

I think you would be better off waiting for their new model:

I have not pledged, because the Kickstarter reached the goal in about three hours and the first 300 discounted InkCases were already sold out. I will wait for the first reviews like I did with the InkPhone ;-) My only objection now is that the screen is a bit small and isn't lit. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...-android-phone |

Just buy one, the first, for Galaxy Note 2, on ebay for 20 euro.
Until now i succeed to pair with my Acer A1 B811 (i dont have a GN2) and to send some pictures to inkcase. Failed to connect the ebook reader application. |
