I travel a lot. What will I do with my BEBOOK?

If you have your BEBOOK with you, you will be able to carry with you all the books you want or to download them instantaneously. 

Can I read in the dark with the BEBOOK?
No. The BEBOOK screen is not backlit. Just like a sheet of paper the BEBOOK E Ink® screen uses normal light to enlighten the reading surface. Your BEBOOK is thus readable in full sunlight which is not the case for almost all standard LCD displays.

When you read, you have no eyestrain and it definitely gives you the experience of reading from paper.

For languages with a limited set of character as Cyrillic or Greek, the files can be read in all formats. The BEBOOK contains default fonts which can decode all these files. Please note that for text files, you will have to set a local information which specifies which is the language of the document.

For documents with an extended set of characters like Chinese, you will need to install your own font on the BEBOOK to decode your documents (except for PDF files which embed most of the times the required font). Please check "How to install a new font on the BEBOOK?".
