Samsung Galaxy S II enjoys record popularity

Lately there have been released numerous new models of smartphones and mobile phones. However, only some (by no means all) of them have become popular among would-be clients as manufacturers expect. Sometimes they are really surprised at high demand for devices they manufacture, especially for smartphones. Galaxy S II, a very popular smartphone, has already attracted so great attention among fans of such devices, although information about its release has appeared in the net so short a time before. Every country usually has its own “taste” when they choose one or other portable device. However, in South Korea, the native ...

However, according to IDC, if we compare the share of Apple in the same quarter last year we find that the share was doubled. And here a question comes if Apple needs the iPhone 5 at all.The number of iPhones that Apple shipped in the second quarter of 2011 is 20.3 million, thus the number has considerably increased since last year from 8.4 million. And now Apple has 18.5 percent of the world’s smartphone market and the number is ...

Amazon Kindle: free – to good hands

Kevin Kelly –  founder of the magazine Wired – is interested  in the future of one of the most popular gadgets.In October, 2009 John Uokenbah – the fan of electronic spreadsheets and the author of several books and application for Excel, noticed an amusing thing: the price of ebook reader amazon Kindle  decreases with such an enviable persistence that the schedule of its falling represents a direct line without the slightest oscillations. Since June, 2010 this line became so plain that if everything goes without changes it will be possible to predict the moment to which Kindle becomes free – ...

Will Tablet PC’s Replace Laptops?

When iPad first introduced their tablet PC a lot of people were rather skeptical about it and it didn’t make the news. However, small-scale businesses appreciated the device and started using it more and more.According to research carried out by business publications companies are gradually replacing laptops with iPads. Out of 2000 companies with a staff of fewer than 500 people, 9% use iPad instead of laptops. Moreover, the number of PC and laptop users has decreased. In 2010 83% were PC users, now the number has gone down to 79%. The situation with laptops is 65% and 60% accordingly. ...

E-Reader challenge



Choosing is not my cup of tea. On entering a shop I keep glancing at the shop-window for several minutes and then a thought strikes me “It would be better if they suggested less things! (at least, those I currently need)”. I wonder: “Does a person really need such a large assortment of goods, which are generally rather similar?” Due to this wide choice many people are practically unable to decide on anything in a store.




Astak vs Kindel

I believe, my comparative approach will be quite helpful in effective obtaining of the e-Reader with no difficulties.
So, what makes it difficult to choose? First of all, it's the price. For instance, you are ready to spend $200 and find (say, on this website) 11 wonderfully-looking devices. Let’s compare two of them, for example 6’’ Kindle Wireless Reading Device and Californian 5’’Astak EZ Reader Pocket Pro.

At this time Amazon Kindle DX 6"(Amazon.com)cost only 139.99$ (with 3G it's only 189$). Obviously the price goes against Astak. 


Display.

The most important thing in any e-Reader is the display. These two e-Readers aren’t different in the type of display as they use the same 2nd-generation Viziplex e-paper. If the e-paper was different, you wouldn’t even consider buying either of these devices. The e-paper of the previous generation was used by Sony PRS-500 spacer and LBook V8 and their displays had bad contrast and trouble with tracks that remained from the previous page. TFT-display devices, however, like Ectaco Jetbook+ were much worse than even the e-paper of the 1st generation.
Here the devices are equal.

Size.

Kindle outstrips Astak when it comes to the size of the display. But is
