      I love reading on electronic paper, but an affordable (portable) device that supports web browsing has heretofore eluded me - now I see that the latest kindle paperwhite has a browsing feature and I'm considering it - anyone used it for j-novel.club prepub reading? anyone have a suggestion for a better device?(around the same size/price? 6-8" screen $150-200 (I don't want to particularly throw money at bezos & co)
      is saw this beast, and I want it but it isn't for sale yet.

        @Jon-Mitchell have you checked out the onyx box line? They have a wide variety of options, I paid a bit more than $200 for mine but I wanted a model with physical page turn buttons, USB c charger port, and expandable micro SD storage. The box line just runs a full android os so you can use a browser without issues, but I use the j novel club app instead.

            There are a bunch of options if you look on their site and buy directly, most of the other stores I have seen don't carry anywhere near the full lineup, just keep in mind that many of their models, particularly ones with an SD card slot, are designed for the Russian market and as a result will cost a lot more in shipping, shipping will take longer, and you will have to do a bit of work to enable the Google play store, so you should pay attention and buy accordingly if any of that matters to you.

              amazon just dropped the price 25% - I'm guessing I can live with contributing to their loss (at this price they must be selling below cost) and pick up a paperwhite signature (32gb/no ads/wireless charging) for $139- before I take the plunge - has anyone used a paperwhite for the JNC website?
