My sister loves it

Review Date: April 18, 2009

Reviewer: Joyce Mitchell, Carrollton, TX

I bought this product for my sister last Christmas as she is an avid reader. She loves it. It's portable and very convenient. The only problem the batteries ran out quickly and there is no backlight. She solved the battery problem by putting lithium batteries in it and after 3 weeks they are still at full power. She said eventually it will replace all her paperback books.

Review Date: July 6, 2006

Reviewer: Doris L. Ainsworth,

I am not happy with this Ebookman. I bought it new and it was already obsolete. The mobipocket had V4.3 and to use it it required V4.8. I e-mailed customer service several times and followed their instructions but to no avail. I talked with Tech over the phone but they were still not able to get it running correctly. I wish I had never heard of Franklin Ebookman. All it was was one BIG headache.

Reviewer: M. Rodriguez,

I bought this basically for downloading and reading ebooks. It is not very user friendly and took and very long time to successfully download a book. But the worst part was that it does not have a back-light on the screen. So the screen is light gray and the words are light black. After 2 hours of reading an ebook I had an extreme headache due to eye strain! If they had given this device a back-light or changed the phont color it would be useable , but as it is I'm now looking for a new one to buy.

Horrible

Bought mine and was never able to use...tried to contact tech support with no answer or call back. Waste of my money! Stay far away!

Poor product

Review Date: May 3, 2009

Reviewer: L. S. Williams, martinsville, indiana

I tried for 6 hours to get this thing to work. I installed everything like the book said and then it mentioned on the site where i was buying books that i needed to buy mobipocket software, so I did. It still would not work, it wouldn't even register as being hooked to my computer. Which my computer tech friend couldn't even figure out. Stay away from this product unless you want to waste your money!
