Y'all are unbelievable! I was hoping to score a case for my jetBook LITE and to get one for my son, dad, and friend as well is really awesome! Not only will I keep reading, but I'll continue to recommend your product to everyone I can as well. In addition to the jetBook LITE being the best ebook reader out there, the Ectaco team are great people too! Thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you for the four cases and the opportunity to win them with the contest. Tim Vladimir Dautfest |
I love the jetbook. My dad bought me a white one for christmas since i cant ever put down a book and since I am going off to college next year, he thought it would be a great way to store all my favorite books without breaking my back. It really out maneuvers anything the other digital reading devices complain about adn I love it. My friend says she wants one now too. I owe it all to the jetbook.

In 5 minutes I was more impressed with the jetBook than the sony ebook reader. I could not take Sony's "flash" on page turns. The buttons were hard to press and too tiny. E-publishing is the new frontier! Get the jetBook into as many electronics stores as you can. It beats Sony hands-down.

I just bought a Jetbook and I'm very happy with it. The screen is a bit small but it's great to read PDFs, especially with the zoom function. Vladimir Dautfest |
I love my jetBook. -- no eye strain at all. And I have already used the landscape feature twice. (who would have guessed). Thanks for making such a great eReader. Theresa
