Cybook Gen3 is a 6 inch (15.2 cm) e-Reader, specially designed for reading e-Books and e-News, or listening to MP3 music or audio-books. It is produced by the French company Bookeen. ==Description== The Cybook Gen3 is an ultra-light reading device based on E Ink screen technology. Its screen possesses a paper-like high contrast appearance and is readable under direct sunlight. The device offers a battery lifetime of 8,000 page flips. The Cybook Gen3 reads many file formats and offers access to a wide range of digital documents. To a host computer the Cybook Gen3 functions as a typical USB mass storage device, which allows for easily copying books from most computers without the need for special drivers. For this reason it is supported on all major operating systems, including Linux. The device uses TrueType fonts (.ttf), and can also be used as an image viewer to display JPEG, GIF and PNG files, as well as to play MP3 files. The Cybook Gen3 technically supports PDF files, however it doesn't reflow text and early firmware did not allow zooming in on documents. Current firmware revisions support ten levels of zoom and allow scrolling around the page, making the device suitable for reading many PDF files. However, very large PDF files take a long time to display once the file is selected. Some PDF files also cause the firmware to crash, which requires a hard reset by pressing the small button on the back side. A Secure Digital card slot allows for expanded storage, it support SDHC card, at least to an 8 gigabyte SD card on Rev2, Rev3 and GoldEdition devices (due to the use of s3c2440 CPU instead of a hardware USB SD reader). The Cybook Gen3 runs Linux as its underlying operating system. While the firmware source code is mostly open-source, the Mobipocket Reader application which allows the display of DRM-protected content is closed-source. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cybook Gen3」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
