20.32 cm (8 ") e-reader bundel, red cover
The ICARUS8 has a unique 8” e-paper screen, which is roughly the same as the size of a paperback book. This size is considered by many to be the preferred book size. With a resolution of 1024x768, the ICARUS8 offers incredibly sharp text and the e-paper technology enables you to read comfortably both inside as well as outside.
<b>Paperback reading</b>
The paperback is not the preferred book size in the world without reason. It offers the perfect trade-off between comfortable reading and compact dimensions. Now the paperback book enters the digital age with the ICARUS8, the world’s first 8” e-reader with e-paper technology. The 8” (20.32cm) screen has the dimensions of a page in a paperback book. The bigger screen size offers many advantages:
- Bigger fonts possible
- Less page turns needed
- Higher resolution, ideal for viewing images. The ICARUS8 has a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels
- Easy to navigate user interface, with large and clear icons
Of course the screen is not the only highlight of the ICARUS8. It comes with all the advanced reading options you have come to expect of an ICARUS e-reader.
<b>Great for PDF</b>
Naturally the ICARUS8 has great PDF support, with PDF Reflow, many options for adjusting documents and fast page turns. And PDF documents look better on the bigger screen than on typical 6” e-readers.
<b>Connected device</b>
A built-in WiFi (802.11 B/G/N) module enables you to buy and download ebooks on the go. Of course you can also transfer ebooks or media files onto your device via USB 2.0 and a computer.
<b>Listen to background music</b>
For an even more comfortable reading session, a music player is included with support for most important music formats. Just pop in your headphone and start listening.
