Of course I dream of something with feature parity with the US and Eastern alternatives, but I am not interested in color or touch. Mostly care about format support and rendering.

    Do not look into pocketbook. Owner of many years here. My touchscreen failed. The e-ink screen is completely fine. It was never dropped and been babied for all the years I owned it (always transported in its own hard-shell case). It just spontaneously failed and they charge two thirds of the price of a new device for a new touchscreen. A touchscreen of this size costs about 20 euros. They charge 260 euros. (InkPad X) and no, you cannot use any mouse or keyboard, not via USB-C nor Bluetooth. Either your touchscreen works or the device is totaled. Stay away from this trash company. And yes, it is glued together. Because of course it is.
