The Digital Reader

This is an e-reader that I haven’t covered yet, but you might recognize it. It’s based on the same hardware as the Skytex Primer, which I reviewed a couple months ago. The only real difference is that Skytex are a US company and MiGear are Australian. It’s also available in the US under the brand E-matics.

This is a basic e-reader based on a 7? LCD screen (no Wifi or touchscreen). Ebook support includes PDF Epub, FB2. It also is a decent video player.

I pointed out the similarity in hardware because in a few minutes I’m going to go try to install this update on the unit I have. Hopefully I should be able to install it.

Update: I’ve heard from my contact with Skytex,sellers of the Primer. They also plan to release a firmware update for the Primer.
