Boox, presented by Onyx International, a group of professionals who dedicate themselves in designing state-of-the-art reading terminal. The beauty of the Boox is embodied in both its simplicity and its power. As we are going to show you, Boox is an open and flexible platform for both consumers and conten providers. Boox is powered by an 8-level grayscale e-ink screen that looks and feels like paper. Passive lighting and diffuse surface relaxes your eyes and reduces eye strain. The hand-writing system lets you take notes while reading and sketch up ideas that happen to emerge. Boox takes full advantage of new-generation e-ink screens: extremely low powe consumption. Each full charge can sustain a few weeks' reading. By reducing pape consumption while providing a realistic paper-like reading experience, digital conten helps to protect the environment without sacrificing convenience or life style. Boox comes with viewers for most popular ebook and image formats, including PDF, HTML, CHM, EPub, TXT, and MobiPocket(NON-DRM). For content partners, we also provide support for custom formats and digital rights management solutions. All of ou viewers have standard features such as layout management, font adjustment, full tex search, zooming, and page flow. For a next-generation information device, connectivity is essential. The user can connec to the Internet with build-in WiFi or other add-on modules to download new content or jus surf the web. The web browser on Boox uses WebKit, the same software engine tha powers desktop browsers such as Safari and Chrome, customized for the e-ink screen.
Boox, the new reading experience.
