And MacWorld doesn’t give it very good grades. The cost is attractive, $150, but it has usability flaws that make it a “tough sell” – the resistive touch screen being part of the problem.
Overall, however, I never warmed up to the Aluratek Libre Touch. It didn’t come close to meeting my expectations for ease of use, primarily because the touchscreen isn’t that great and the online bookstore integration was so flawed. While I like the idea of a color ebook reader, the Libre Touch’s execution made me long for my black-and-white Kindle.
