The new commercial displays are ideal solutions for public display settings from hospitality and retail to corporate, government, educational and healthcare facilities. New Delhi, June 20, 2014– ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics, and communication solutions, announced its latest commercial displays including versatile large format displays, free-standing digital kiosks, and wall-mounted digital billboards. They last crossed my desk in 2012 when they announced that the C920, a 9.7″ ereader with a color E-ink screen, would be licensed to Ectaco and sold in Europe, Russia, and the US as the Jetbook Color.Tweet to Feature-Rich Commercial Displays Include Versatile Large Format Displays, Free-Standing Digital Kiosks, and Wall-Mounted Digital Billboards
Hanvon was at one time (2009 – 2011) a leading OEM of ereaders, but I have not seen much from them in a couple years now. The hands on video I found would seem to confirm that detail. There is also criticism of the frontpanel, which several users described as shiny. Many complain about the slowness and disappointing screen resolution. It’s been on the market in China since August and garnered mixed reviews from users. They’re showing that the E930 costs 2675 yuan, or about $435. It’s not clear whether users can install Android apps, but I do know that the E930 supports TTS and has a rear-facing speaker. The E930 also supports a wide variety of file formats: MP3, wav, and arm for audio, and Heb, Epub, PDF, FB2, Mobi, doc, html, chm, and txt for ebooks.Īt this point there is literally almost no English language coverage of the E930 I can’t find anything aside from a mention at MobileRead Forums. But many Chinese retail sites do list the E930, including Amazon.
That is a stylus you see in the slot on the left, but it’s optional.
It does have a frontlight, and one retail site also mentions that the touchscreen is fingertip friendly. The 9.7″ E-ink display has a screen resolution of 1,200 x 825. This Chinese ereader maker launched a new 9.7″ model this summer which combines a frontlight, stylus, and Android.ĭetails are still sketchy (several sites are offering contradictory specs and prices), but what we do know is that the E930 runs Android on a 1GHZ CPU with 4GB internal storage and a micro SD card slot. The market for large-screen ereaders may have been supplanted by tablets but that hasn’t discouraged Hanvon.
