Spotted at Browns Plains, QLD on clearance for $34 with no mention of original price.

I don't really know anything about these things so unsure if a good deal or not, but seems to be cheaper than anything else I could find online.

    I think they use to sell for $79 when they first came out.

    Or Just buy a bag of potatoes for 99 cents

      1/ potatoes are $1.5 to $4/kg, so 99c is a bargain, please make a separate post for that
      2/ this is the closest thing to potatoes that Kmart sell

    These are not e-readers! They are just el-cheapo low-spec things being pushed as e-readers!

      Its like the shop that had a big case of boots that were so ill-fitting you could barely walk in them.
      So they sold them on eBay as "Riding Boots".

    Great as a paperweight!

    7" Laser reader $38 delivered eBay not sure how they compare http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/7-Ebook-reader-Media-Mp3-Audio-Av…

  • zhangcheng34 on 02/07/2014 - 11:47

    It's been this price for like 3 or 4 months. bought one in April and working very well. Support MP3 and MP4, but don't count on the video playback.

    Multi-language support, include simple-chinese.

    • rmamila on 02/07/2014 - 12:04

      How do you rate it as a pure e-reader?

  • Tihocan on 02/07/2014 - 12:56

    If you want one for reading only, I find TFT is awful for reading books, especially with a cheap display/device.

    I bought the MiGear one a while back and, software issues aside, found it unpleasant enough to start looking for an e-ink reader. In my opinion you'd be be better off waiting for JB Hifi to do their usual Kobo mini sale.

    However, if you want it for the other stuff - I have no opinion. :)

  • majord on 02/07/2014 - 13:30

    You can get entry level android tablets for a similar price now. These things are totally obsolete

    • rmamila on 02/07/2014 - 14:15

      If your intention is reading only then they are two different things. Tablets don't give the battery life that e-readers have and on the other hand e-readers are better for reading when you have to look at the screen for very long time.

      • majord on 02/07/2014 - 18:57

        How on earth is this any better for reading than a tablet? It probably has a worse screen if anything.

        Battery life might be better, but if u turned WiFi off and were Just reading, most cheap tablets would do similar duration on a charge

    • Abaddon on 03/07/2014 - 09:01

      Any good examples? Best I am finding is unnamed chinese models on ebay for ~$40-50

      • majord on 08/07/2014 - 11:20

        Exactly..

        Unnammed ereader or unnamed tablet, you choose.
