Can anything displayed on the lcd screen be transfered to the e-ink screen? Like, say, a page from the eReader app or the shortcovers app? I would seriously consider getting this if that were the case: I could read all my fictionwise and shortcovers stuff on the e-ink screen and use the lcd screen when lighting gets low. Likewise with my non-drm ebooks: I could install FBReader or Aldiko and use that on the lcd when I need to.

When you get such nice toys would you please do a live web-cam as you learn how to use it? We wouldn’t laugh, promise.

Oooh, I hadn't read about the built in mic! Still digging the Alex but not buying another 6 inch screen.

The bottom screen would make it great to look up pictures of things that I am not real familiar with like the Grumman Bearcat from W E B Griffins' The Corps series.
The Slashgear vid mentions that you can link video / pictures to the text. |
