Device cannot be used
Unfortunately, the "buecher.de" platform is pre-installed on the device. It is not possible to open an account with a Swiss address, which means the device cannot be used. Unfortunately, I had to send it back and order a new one from Orell Füssli - very annoying!
Pro
- Pleasant size
Contra
- Device cannot be used
Insolvent bookseller Preset
Rubbish, would not recommend
Contra
- Bücher.de preset as bookseller. Account creation as Swiss not possible
- Bookseller change not possible without registration
- Input delayed
Top vs. flop
Bought the de luxe Tolino for the holidays. Spent hours trying to register with buecher.de. Impossible as a CH citizen. Digitec took the Tolino back without any problems and refunded the money within minutes.
Perhaps at some point in the future it will be possible to have the Tolino from Digitec with a CH shop.
(Without this registration, a connection to an online library would have been impossible).Pro
- Great e-book reader
- Super service at Digitec
- Device was taken back without complaint
- Money back in my account within 3 minutes
Contra
- Buecher.de as a shop not possible as a CH citizen
- Only DE models for sale
- Change of shop impossible
Wrong shop
The Epos3 was linked to a shop that is not available in Switzerland and therefore cannot be used. It is not possible to register and therefore you cannot link your library. Customer service was unable to help and kept claiming that it should be possible to change the shop. However, this was not possible even after hours of research.
Good reader. The default setting of the bookshop Weltbild.ch is absolutely annoying. Cannot be changed!
The workaround is that the directory for the books is at least accessible when connected to a PC via USB. This allows you to load purchased eBooks from other bookshops. But it's still quite tedious, this stupid shop constraint. You can't integrate your own cloud.
Pro
- Stable and fast reader
Contra
- the default setting of the Weltbild.ch bookshop
tolino epos 3 is very good-super as a pure e-reader
Mac compatibility: not compatible with Mac!!!!!! Connecting the tolino eReader to a Mac computer is not supported. The additional software does not work for me.
Pro
- Weight, screen,
Contra
- Mac compatibility
- lame WLAN
- Battery capacity
