But what you see in the picture is not exactly a competitor of the first member of this market, IPAD, much less the small Galaxy Tab or the powerful Motorola Xoom. This one is the EB-850R, the youngest competitor in digital book readers like the Kindle and Brazil Alpha Plus.
The company responsible for producing the e-reader is the ECS Taiwan, which presented in Computex a digital book reader with 8-inch screen and 800 x 600 pixels, which is above the cheapest model of the Kindle, with its six inch screen. To control what appears on screen, the company chose the 2.2 version of Android, Froyo, controlled by the processor WonderMedia. There are two options for RAM, 256 MB and 512 MB.
The screen is touch sensitive, resistive technology, which recognizes the pressure taps on the surface and accepts the Stylus famous pens. Another option is to store, ranging from 2 to 32 GB of internal space, besides having a MicroSDHC card slot, Wi-Fi b / g / n option for 3G connection.
