This is great, congratulations on the launch! The device sounds interesting, and the price is affordable. As I understand, it contains a snapshot of English Wikipedia. Can I somehow make a snapshot of a different wiki, for example, Russian Wikipedia, and put it on the device? Other MediaWiki-based installations? What about non-wiki books, can I convert them to a format the device understands? I've long wanted to get myself a e-ink device, but hesitate to get one that can only do one thing, read English Wikipedia. To what extent is it hackable? -- Alexey Feldgendler <[email protected]> [ICQ: 115226275] http://feldgendler.livejournal.com _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
