Pandigital recently uploaded a new firmware for the black Novel. It’s dated 14 January. I’ve downloaded and installed it. It’s still based on v1.5 and still uses the B&N ebookstore, but on the plus side the new firmware turned the Novel from an e-reader into a tablet.With this firmware you can now install apps without [...]

Review: black Pandigital Novel (Canadian firmware) – video
December 2nd, 2010 · 15 Comments · hardware reviews, video
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about how to change the firmware on the black Novel. Since I now had a new firmware to try, I decided to write a second review of the black Novel. The review was delayed, because I spent a few weeks trying to find a way to overcome [...]

Do you remember how I said Amazon weren’t planning to put the Kindle on sale? It looks like I was wrong. I got this from the official Kindle twitter account: Black Friday Deal: Limited number of previous gen Kindle (same E Ink as current Nook) for just $89! Deal starts 11/26 at 9 am PST. [...]
Adobe are having a Black Friday Sale
November 22nd, 2010 · No Comments · ebook tools, sales
Only it’s not much of a sale. I compared Adobe’s price in their webstore with Amazon’s, and Amazon had the lower price 7 times out of 8. And for most of the items the difference was more than $50. But if you still want to buy from Adobe, here are the details: Save $50 off [...]
Amazon won’t be putting the Kindle on sale for Black Friday
November 22nd, 2010 · No Comments · press release, sales
So Amazon sent out a press release this morning with all their Black Friday sales listed, and the Kindle wasn’t listed. Given the supply limitations we’ve seen lately, I didn’t expect them to. The K3 is already selling well enough that a sale would be counterproductive. But there are a couple items that interests me. [...]
How to hack your (black) Pandigital Novel
November 19th, 2010 · 138 Comments · tips and tricks
A few days ago I posted an updated version of a guide to hacking the white Novel Android tablet. Since then I’ve been working on hacking the black Novel, and I’m ready to explain how to hack it. TBH, I don’t think you should. The black Novel runs Android v1.5., which is a rather old [...]

Black Friday tablet sales roundup
November 16th, 2010 · 2 Comments · sales
I wrote a post yesterday about e-readers that are going to be on sale after Thanksgiving Day, and somehow it slipped my mind that tablets would also be on sale. Oops. I’ve looked, and there aren’t that many tablets listed in the Black Friday adverts.

November 15th, 2010 · 5 Comments · hardware news
Quite a few stores will be offering an e-reader for their Black Friday sales (on the day after Thanksgiving). I’ve been waiting to write this post until I was sure all the adverts had been leaked. I’m pretty sure I got them all.

Pandigital Novel (black) review roundup
August 20th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware reviews
So we’re 2 days past the launch of the black Pandigital Novel, and it’s pretty clear all the early reviews are online. Now is a good time to gather them all in one post so they can be found easily. I know that not everyone at SlateDroid agreed with my review, so I found it [...]
