As expected, Onyx has officially released a new 10.3-inch eNote with a color E Ink screen called the Boox Note Air3 C, and it’s already available to order from Amazon for $499.99 with free shipping. The Note Air3 C is basically a Tab Ultra C inside a Note Air design. It has the same screen […]
How to Add Custom Fonts to PocketBook eReaders
While reviewing the new PocketBook InkPad Color 2, I was critical of PocketBook’s seemingly random selection of font choices that don’t appear to be optimized for E Ink screens at all, and I posted an article complaining about how PocketBook doesn’t support adding your own fonts to their ereaders. Some folks were kind enough to […]
Anyone Else Experience This Recurring Kindle Font Bug?
One thing that keeps annoying me with Kindles over the past couple of years is a bug that sometimes reverts the font type back to the original publisher’s font. I always use a custom font called Merriweather that I got off my old Windows 7 computer (it’s my favorite font type for ebooks), and I’m […]
What are the Most Important Hardware Features on eReaders?

The prices aren’t quite as low as they […]
I Want a Boox Palma but it’s Way Too Expensive
Last month Onyx released a phone-sized ereader called the Boox Palma, and I’ve been tempted to buy one but I just can’t do it. There are a lot of things I like about the Palma but there’s one thing I just can’t get past and that’s the high price. The retail price of the Boox […]
Moaan InkPalm Plus Mini eReader Now on Amazon for $215
I noticed a new listing on Amazon for the Moaan InkPalm Plus, a mini ereader with a 5.84″ E Ink display that looks more like a phone than a typical ereader. The InkPalm Plus was released last year in China so it’s not exactly new, but now it’s available to purchase on Amazon. It’s being […]
