Review of Aluratek LIBRE eBook Reader PRO - eBook reader - SD 2 GB 5" - white

I just got this reader a couple of days ago and have done some reading in several of the different formats. With the latest firmware update from Aluratek, you can read Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) epub and pdf files, which means you can download new releases from stores such as Sony, and soon Barnes and Noble. I have downloaded one ebook from Sony, and it displays well. The downside is that it doesn't seem to have as good a variation in font size as do the books that came on the SD card and the few books I downloaded from free sites. To be more specific, the fonts go from tiny, to still slightly too small if its a bit dim in the room, to outrageously huge. I don't know if its the particular book I bought, the Sony store, or coincidence or what. I have looked at pdf, fb2, and epub, and listened to mp3. I would like the ability to keep a few audiobooks on it, but overall I am satisfied.

However, I don't like the white color that I got. I would recommend the black one, or if you don't want black then maybe one of the different colored jetbooks. The plastic casing is better quality than what I was afraid I would be getting, and the reader feels solid and well made. The white casing makes the greenish gray tint of the background a little more apparent than what some of the other colors probably do, however. The screen is very nice, and the words are very nice and crisp.
