First Impression
At first glance I like the style, it's small, thin and fits nicely in the palm of your hand. The display is clear and seems easy to read. There is a snap on cover that protects the screen. However, the user interface is going to take some getting used to. With buttons on the right hand side, it is comfortable for right handed individuals, but they are not labelled, and the center button does not seem to have a clear function.

First Impression

This unit has a lot of features. It is easy to use and is equipped with Wi-fi. I have already added my music library to it and have started downloading books and articles. The screen is large, the resolution is clear and I found the fonts easy to read. Navigation is by button and the touch screen with stylus - I like this. When you are reading and you want to change pages, all you need is to press one button, that's it. However if you are surfing the web, I recommend that you use the stylus.
