Hi Team,
ReplyDeleteWhen are you going to bring 8" to 9" reader category , something in the line of irex or kindle dx. I am more interested in reading the tech manuals on these.
Cheers for the effort.
Pugazh
Chennai
Hi Pugazh,
ReplyDeleteWe are constantly re-evaluating the features and ideas for the next version of Pi, your feedback is certainly taken and being considered!
Thanks for taking the time to give us feedback :)
Hi.
ReplyDeleteI ordered my Infibeam PI on April 15th and was most pleasantly surprised to find it delivered at my doorstep in Chennai on April 17th!! I'm still really thrilled with the product and would recommend it to anyone who's a bookworm.
The only problem I now have is that I had the cover that comes along as an accessory and till date I still haven't received it. I just hope it's not been lost in orbit somewhere between Ahmedabad and Chennai!!!
When are you guys planning to launch the larger screen (8" or 9") versions of PI? I am eagerly waiting for those - as the 6" version wont suffice my needs. I am also ready to pre-order the same (larger screen version) if I know the release dates.
ReplyDeleteAnd one more question - till which version of PDF / Doc files does the PI support?
@Suman We are continuously evaluating feedback from avid readers such as yourself. What we are sure is that there will be a wireless version in the future as it was a very highly requested feature. We are looking at the other requests as well, keep the feedback coming!
ReplyDeleteThe Pi supports the standard .doc (not .docx) and .pdf files.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your earlier response!
What I actually wanted to ask about pdf support is that does the PI support PDF files upto the ones generated by Adobe Acrobat 9? And what about password protected pdf files?
Sorry for continuously asking so many questions. The problem is that I am based out of Kolkata, and I cant visit one of your offices and get a feel of the PI before buying it. So I have to rely on this blog only :(
And one last thing... when will the PI leather case be available, as I wish to order it too (I have already added the PI + a 4GB SD Card + Leather case in my wishlist!).
Already placed an order for the PI + SD Card + Leather case. Now waiting eagerly for my goodies to arrive :) Will post comment again when I get them :)
ReplyDeleteInfibeam guys - u can still go ahead and answer my questions!
my question is whether i can read any pdf or doc file (stored in my notebook)on the pi by transferring it through data cale.....or does it display only the ebooks purchased from infibeam..?......i would also like to know the rough launch date of the pi2 ....and the feature that u guys are planning to incorporate in it...thanks in advance...faheem
ReplyDelete@Suman Yes, it will support Acrobat 9 PDFs.
ReplyDeleteIt does not support password protected files.
@faheem It will display any PDFs and DOCs that you transfer via USB to the Pi. You can also store PDFs and DOCs on a SD card that can be read by the Pi.
The pi2 will have wireless for sure, but we cannot say much beyond that at this stage.
Can we read .chm files.
ReplyDelete@Abu We do not support CHM files. However, you *can* convert CHM to PDF format[1] which is supported by Pi.
ReplyDeletePlease see http://www.infibeam.com/pi#specs for the list of supported formats.
[1] See http://www.freepdfconvert.com/convert_help_file_to_pdf.asp
Hi guys!
ReplyDeleteGot my PI delivered to me mid last week, and have already fallen in love with it! Great product, and an amazing li'l companion for book lovers like me. Now I carry my entire digital library with me (in a 4GB SD card), and can read any book of my choice anytime. Isn't that great??
Kudos to the Infibeam PI team for coming up with it. For us guys, who cant get their hands on the Kindle, the PI is a dream come true.
One question, however, remains here - how do I get my product serviced within the warranty period (god forbid ;-) - since I'm based out of Kolkata, with no Infibeam office in the vicinity?
I bought Infibeam Pi from local (Bangalore Picsquare.com) on 5th May, 2010.
ReplyDeletePros:
1. First Indian ebook reader (although I later found out that this is not totally Indian designed !)
2. Very light (180 gm) and good form factor both of which give tireless readability.
3. With leather case, the whole unit is very compact and can easily be carried wherever one goes. It really looks like a small diary.
4. With music on the background, reading becomes a pleasurable pastime.
5. The letters are crisp, and well readable, although not jet black like printed books.
Cons (points for improvement):
1. Booting is slow, it takes more than 40 seconds
2. Loading any file is slow even for files of about 100 kb
3. Fairly high price for Indian market.
4. Although it is claimed that it will support many formats, in reality prc, html are not possible.
5. Some pdf files created by utility software are not fully usable. Increasing font size or even zooming doesn’t help in making the text big enough to read. I am not sure if this is inherent problem.
6. As someone pointed out, it hangs sometimes ( I had to reset at least 5 times during my short usage)
7. The user manual version is V2.0 but the unit I received is V2.2.1. But nowhere I can find out what are the improvements of V2.2.1. Even for a product costing Rs. 1000, like mouse, version details are provided for users to know the improvements done.
8. The manufacturer has to assure that any future firmware upgrades are available either as CD or downloadable from your website. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
9. Files with diagrams are not properly positioned and formatted. So, this is ok for novels, history, biography etc. but is very poor for books on engineering, medicine and other scientific books, where diagrams are always part of the text.
Overall it is a good product and I hope further improvements will be provided by manufacturer by way of free upward firmware to the present users.
Raja Ramalingam
I am waiting answers for the comments of Mr.Raja Ramalingam to decide on buying my piece of PI.
ReplyDeleteIs PI readily available at picsquare.com ?
@salake / Raja Ramalingam
ReplyDeleteRegarding the price: At Rs. 9999 Pi is the lowest price eReader in the market especially with the eInk technology. The next eInk ebook reader is around 15-18K.
Regarding the formats: We support the standard html & prc. Not all html files may follow the standard specs.
Regarding the firmware upgrades: Pi was shipped to all customers with a V2.2.1 version. Manuals always mention major version numbers. All updates as and when they come up, will be provided through an email for download free of cost.
Regarding the diagrams: Its as much a content issue as a reader issue. All mobile readers face these challenges. eBooks have to go through a design for them to suit a mobile readers. http://craigmod.com/journal/ipad_and_books/ explains more on text reflows.
@Abu Yes, you can purchase it by visiting our Bangalore office (PicSquare.com) but please do call before coming so that we can make sure that we have a piece ready and to ensure that someone will be in office to hand over the Pi.
Suman
ReplyDeleteI am in Kolkata. Can I have a look at your Pi please.
Suvadeep
Hi
ReplyDeleteI noticed that PI supports 8 shade grayscale.. Are you, the pi users, facing any problem due to it? how does it differ from 16 shade actually?
and I am in a bit confusion.. to buy it now or wait for the next version.. infi guys, can you please give me a rough idea about what would be the price of pi 2 with wireless? and will it be like kindle that charges nothing extra for wireless coverage worldwide? plz inform me soon.. thnx in advance..
@Infibeam - Guys... looks like you overlooked my question - what about my warranty concerns? How will I get the warranty in Kolkata, in case I need it?
ReplyDelete@Suvadeep - You can get in touch with me at my email id sumanghosh[at]indiatimes.com.
@Aveek - I am using the PI myself, and can assure you that 8 grayscale is absolutely not a problem for reading normal books. But ya, for images/comics, it might come as a bit of a hindrance... but I suppose u'll get used to it soon.
ReplyDelete@Aveek Wireless Pi is still in research and is about 2-3 months out. It will be priced higher than Pi and both versions will continue to exist.
ReplyDeleteWe're still working with mobile providers to figure out the right setup that works for everyone including our customers.
@Suman You can send the Pi to us via courier or drop it in our Kolkata office and we will ship back either a fixed or a new Pi. Please let us know if we have missed any other queries :)
As like few other ebook reader do you thinking to equip Pi with inbuilt dictionary as it very useful future. And another thing is about search option, how we type a word to search on Pi? There is no any wrd input method for it like other ebook reader. So do you think to add this features in Pi for next version. So at final by what time we expect new version with above features.
ReplyDelete@nsoftpedia There is already a search feature built-in using the on-screen virtual keyboard. That being said, the Pi is more geared towards being a *reading* device and is not meant to be interactive.
ReplyDeleteAs mentioned before, the wireless Pi is at least 2-3 months away.
I bought a Pi + SD Card + Leather case for myself, waiting for it to come to me! :)
ReplyDeleteIs Pi available at some shop/reseller in chennai, or do i have to purchase it only online??
ReplyDelete@kannan It is available for sale only online.
ReplyDeleteThanks for providing the link about the formatting of the text.
ReplyDeletebtw, can Infibeam developers tell us how exactly the Pi differs from other standard ebook readers like Kindle, Nook, Sony etc., from the view point of formatting of text and diagrams, 8 shades of grey, text searching, book mark, etc ?
There need not be any coverup or defence because we as Indian users know this Pi cannot be compared one-to-one in all aspects of other foreign counterparts because of various factors like price, Wifi (lack of it) etc.
Raja Ramalingam
Interested in buying this ebook reader and experimenting with apps if supported (It can be so much more than a simple ebookreader), so have following queries
ReplyDelete1) When are you planning to release the Linux firmware (Os, libraries, any gpl apps) source code.
2) Any plan on releasing a SDK for app development or giving links to used versions of software and libraries
3) I see that a similar spec ebook reader from Fixit called eslick is available with GPL source code for firmware. By any chance is it same as this at the base hw and firmware level (Other than the app itself which potentially could be different). In which case, I can get most of the info, from their released source and info for now.
Eagerly waiting for a response
HanishKVC
I had a sony ebook reader, but dumped it, since it became increasingly difficult reading.. due to text reflow problems.
ReplyDeleteIs infibeam pi free of text reflow problem, for all formats ( pdf, doc, chm basically )
please let me know
@Sai Kalyan
ReplyDeleteText reflow problems depend mainly on how the PDF, DOC, etc. are generated - so while we cannot guarantee to be free of text formatting problems, we do believe that it has one of the best reflow support out there.
Hi team,
ReplyDeleteI am increasingly in a want of buying 8 to 9 inch ebook readers, I may order one form either irex or kindle dx. Please let me know when are you going to bring large format e-ink readers. I do not want 3G or wifi. Just side loading pdf contents.
Cheers.
Pugazh ,Chennai
Is the Pi able to load/handle PDF's of about 20 MB size?
ReplyDeleteHi team,
ReplyDeleteMay i guess you will be bringing additional model on 21 june ?
Cheers,
Pugazh, chennai.
Hi
ReplyDeleteWhen I transfer a pdf file it is shown as unknown in library.The name given is shown only when I select that.How can I solve this
@netmp We are looking at planning the next version of Pi, and we will definitely consider your feedback :)
ReplyDelete@captaincrunchberry We do not recommend such PDFs because these PDFs tend to be image-only which is not what the Pi is meant for, it is meant as an ebook *reader*, so text preferred please :)
@Sreekumar You can use the file browser to view just the directories and file names.
@Infibeam,
ReplyDeleteActually the PDF's in question are proper PDF's (producer shows as created with Acrobat Distiller) and not created via print/scan to PDF. They do have about 500 to 600 pages each, mostly text, perhaps with some diagrams / images.
I understand that reflow on the Pi will push the diagrams out of sequence. However as long as the Pi is able to load and view these large PDF's I don't care about the diagrams/images going out of sequence or even not displaying/displaying a placeholder.
These are reference books that I would like to carry around easily. I can't imagine carting around multiple 500-600 page paper books and if the Pi is able to handle these files that would be good (an 8" or larger screen would have been perfect and you would have another customer right away).
Hi Infibeam
ReplyDeleteI want to buy a Pi but can I pay via Paypal?
Please confirm.
suvadeep
@Kiterunner/suvadeep : Yes, you can pay via Paypal for the Pi.
ReplyDelete@captaincrunchberry For 20MB, we'll have to try. Can you post a link so that we can try it out?
ReplyDeleteHi can you advise if you can can transfer your own EPub ebooks to the device or does it only work with books bought from Infibeam? Also what about PDF version of magazines of about 40MB plus size?
ReplyDelete@Mahesh Yes, you can transfer your own EPubs to the device and read them.
ReplyDeleteWe would not recmomend 40+MB books as the device will slow down in trying to render such a huge file.
Hello
ReplyDeleteRecently Nook has come out with a $149 ebook reader to which Amazon reacted quite sharply by dropping Kindle from $259 to $189.. So, Can we expect Pi to drop prices ??
Also, what abt the battery capacity and battery life of Phi ?
@Arun Prasad
ReplyDeletePi is already the most cost-effective ebook reader out there in India. If you calculate $189 + taxes, it comes to the same price as the Pi :)
Regarding the battery life of Phi, here is the data taken from the product pages ( http://www.infibeam.com/phi ):
Battery Life for Music Playback(Hours) - 5
Battery Life for Video Playback - 4
Recharging Time (Hours) - 3
I dont have a SD card slot in my PC. How do I transfer files from my PC to a Sandisk SD card. Does Pi support micro SD card which comes with a reader?
ReplyDelete@Clifford If you put the SD card in Pi and Pi to the PC using USB cable, the SD card will appear as disc on the computer and then you can transfer any file!
ReplyDeleteI am a research student and hence am used to reading a lot of journals and papers. On an average I stare at the PC for 6-7 hrs/day reading books and papers.I was thinking of buying Pi now but the above comments about Pi being just a "reader" and unable to load images in the properly dissuades me from buying it(research papers come in with loads of diagrams and figures without which they don't make sense).If your are thinking of expanding your base to academia then this feature is a must
ReplyDeleteHai,
ReplyDeleteI have three questions for you
1)I would like to read newspapers and magazines in the infibeam pi during my journey from home to office in the morning.I dont mind sitting at the comp and downloading it every morning.How do i do that.
2)Is there any way i can buy the pi by cash on delivery system or going to an office in either Chennai or Bangalore to buy it.
3)When will the next version come and what features will it have extra.I noticed that question has been asked in the beginning of May and the reply had been 2 -3 months.Its june 29 today so i wonder if you would have a more specifc reply
hai,
ReplyDeleteI have a collection of e books that i have collected from various sources like my coll intranet among others.Can i use all those books on the Pi.
@Vivek If you are in Bangalore, Ahmedabad or Delhi, feel free to visit our office, you can load some of your papers, load it on the Pi and experience it yourself :)
ReplyDelete@"Interpretation of Dreams"
(1) You can use Instapaper.com to bookmark the articles you want to read, and it will then generate an EPUB for you which you can copy to the Pi and read it.
(2) You can visit our Bangalore office and buy the Pi in-person.
(3) The next version is expected in September but it will cost higher.
(4) You can use any ebooks you already have and read it on the Pi (assuming those ebooks are non-DRMed).
Hello
ReplyDeleteSorry to bother you again but how do we know whether an e book is DRMed or not
@"Interpretation of Dreams"
ReplyDeleteIf you can read the book on any computer without needing any kind of username/password, then it is non-DRMed :)
Thanks a lot :) :)
ReplyDelete@ Infibeam,
ReplyDeleteThe cost alone is not a factor . It is the specs which matters most. For comfortable tech journal reading , we need at least 8 or 9 inch screens.
I am ready to pre-order if the spec is good enough. Personally i feel phi is not for book lovers and you should have done justice to your ebook shop and pi series by having a second model comparable to kindle dx. If my requirements are only novels alone , pi is great device, but i need that reference manual handy .
Cheers.
Pugazhendhi M
I dont have an SD slot in my PC. Can I use a micro SD card with reader to transfer books to my Pi ebook reader?
ReplyDelete@Clifford If you put the SD card in Pi and Pi to the PC using USB cable, the SD card will appear as disc on the computer and then you can transfer any file!
ReplyDelete@ Infibeam,
ReplyDeleteYou haven't answered my question.A tentative screen size is all I want to know. On the other hand KDX has lowered its prices. I am not a big fan of big companies, But I would like to have a Indian Supplier with a dependable hardware and support.
Cheers,
Pugazhendhi, chennai.
When will you launch pi2? Is there any plan to increase grey-scale from 8 to 16?
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteThis is Poornima & I am a research scholar as well as an avid book reader. I am interested in purchasing Pi. But I would like to wait for the higher version i.e. Pi2. Could you possibly let me know the specifications that Pi2 will have? And the expected cost, so that I have the money accordingly? :)
Also, a small suggestion. If you could provide an attached reading light and in built dictionary with the reader, it would be great.
Hi
ReplyDeleteI am in Kolkata and there is no way where I can see & test the Pi. Can you give me a mail where I can send a PDF and you can give me a feedback how it comes in the Pi?
I am extremely eager to buy a Pi, please help.
@netmp Unfortunately, we don't have an answer right now on the screen size.
ReplyDelete@Joydeep Expected in September. We are still evaluating the features of the product, unfortunately, we cannot comment on the pixels as of yet.
@Josy We will announce details about Pi2 as soon as we can, we are still evaluating features of Pi2, based on feedback from users and potential users such as yourself :)
@Kiterunner You can visit our Kolkata office and see the Pi for yourself! The address of our Kolkata office is at http://www.infibeam.com/static/branch-offices.html
Infibeam
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot! I just called up the Kolkata office and will be visiting tomorrow to have a look. Can you please tell me when they will be having a Phi for demo? They don't have one right now.
@Kiterunner The Phi will be available for demo after July 30th (the launch date).
ReplyDelete@ Infibeam,
ReplyDeleteDoes this have an accelerometer ?
Cheers,
Pugazhendhi ,Chennai...
Hi Infibeam
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Kolkata office address, I went there & had a look at Pi. Your stuff is very friendly and allowed me to upload my PDFs and read them. I am eagerly waiting for the Phi, please release it ASAP.
@netmp No :)
ReplyDelete@Kiterunner Thanks! Phi is coming soon!
Hi,
ReplyDeleteWithout an inbuilt dictionary (like wordweb) an e-reader is not complete and that defeats the purpose of reading. Can we expect to have one in Pi2?
Hi,I have heard that Pi doesn't have backlight...So does it means its only useful for reading at daytime???
ReplyDelete@Jayaram Yes, we will have a dictionary in Pi2 :-)
ReplyDelete@Neha The Pi is an eink technology-based device. The reason why eink screen is used is because it is as close to paper in look and feel as possible! The important thing is to be pleasing and easy on the eyes. The downside is that, just like paper, there is no backlist :)
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThe smaller screen size and the non-standard 3 mm earphone jack are common complaints in Pi reviews. Are these issues being addressed in Pi2 development?
Does the ebook reader in Phi have all the features of Pi?
Last, the international prices for ereaders have dropped drastically. At least there should not be an upward revision of price in Pi2.
@Jayaram Yes, on both counts, regarding Pi2.
ReplyDeleteRegarding Phi, it is a movie player that has some features of book reading. e.g. it does not support DRM books. Being LCD screen readability is like that on computer and battery lasts for 4-5 hours.
r we going to get 3G support in pi2? would u charge extra or free like kindle? what changes for sure we can expect in pi2? and kindle new releasing soon when r u planning guys?
ReplyDeletewhen are you going to launch pi2..?? what will be the expected cost??
ReplyDeleteHello, I received an Infibeam Pi a few days ago and have added many books into it. However, 2 of the books, I had previously purchased via Sony's Reader Library Store. Both these books were in ePub format. When I connected the Infibeam cable to the computer, (with the Reader Library software open and with my having 'signed in'), the Sony Reader Library is supposed to show a new link (on the left side of the page) for the Infibeam devise page, where you can easily drag any files to the link.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, no new link appeared, so I couldn't do this. I got around it, by going to the folder on my computer where the purchased books were located, copied them to the Infibeam devise page.
OK, with the Infibeam disconnected to the computer, when I try to open, either of only these 2 purchased books - I get a window on the Infibeam telling me to "Activate the devise". I have no idea what this means and what I am supposed to do.
Thanks for your help.
Raychel
@Aveek @Prakash The next version is expected in September, it will cost higher because it includes WiFi and many other features.
ReplyDelete@Raychel This is beyond our realm of what we can do, please contact Sony on the compatibility of their ebooks with other devices.
ReplyDeleteHello InfiBeam ,
ReplyDeleteI'm going to buy new PI reader . I live in Ahmedabad , where can i try InfiBeam PI before buying ?
& I have hundreds of technical ebooks in PDF format , so i have some questions about PI PDF support ...
i. Does PI support simple unprotected PDF files that are downloaded freely from internet like my ebooks?
ii. Does PI handles multicolumn PDF's & PDF's with lot's of images , tables & graphs like an digital magazine ?
iii. Bookmarking , Text Highlighting & Zooming
can be done with PDFs ?
Sorry for lot's of questions ...
-thanks...
Hello again, I have contacted Sony as you suggested. They said that the Infibeam Pi unit needs to be authorized to the Adobe Digital Editions. (HOW DO I DO THIS?). They also said that the Infibeam may not have compatibility with books that have DRM protection.
ReplyDeleteThere is no problem with reading any of the free ebooks on the Infibeam, it is only the 2 that I purchased. When I try to open either of these two – I get the Infibeam message to "Activate the Devise".
-- (Also, each time I connect the Infibeam to my computer, my computer is asking to look for and install driver software. Then, it is telling me to insert a disc, which I don’t have. I seem to be managing without this driver, but am adding this info for your feedback.)
My main concern is to be able to read the purchased ebooks. What does Infibeam mean when I try to open one of the ebooks on it, I get the first page and then this window which says that I need to - "Activate the Devise". WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO AND HOW???
Please don’t tell me that it’s not in your realm – because why would Infibeam have a window with the message to - Activate the Devise – in the first place?
I’m tired of going around in circles with no substantial help.
Raychel
Adobe Digital Editions has a long list of devises that they support – but Infibeam is not included on the list on the ADE website. Is it possible that Infibeam is not recognized by ADE?
ReplyDeleteI am still unable to read any purchased books that are DRM protected, because when I try to start reading – Infibeam has a window that says to “Activate the Devise”.
When I have the ADE software open and I plug in the Infibeam into my computer, the ADE software does not recognize the devise, which I need, in order for me to ‘Activate’ it.
I found this on the ADE blog: -
Authorizing your eReader with ADE
In most cases you can register your ereader quickly and simply. IF the following instructions do not work, please contact our ereader manufacturer directly.
1. Connect your ereader to your computer.
2. The ADE Authorize Device window will pop up. [On rare occasions where the pop up does not happen automatically, please try pressing CTRL + SHIFT + E after connecting your ereader.]
3. Click on Authorize Device.
4. ADE should now recognize your ereader, and will list it within the “Bookshelves” area of the ADE window.
Anyway, I did as was suggested – with no results.
Please could you look into why Infibeam does not appear to be recognized by the ADE software.
Thanks, Raychel
@Raychel These are the list of steps:
ReplyDelete1. install Adobe Digital Editions
2. create an Adobe ID
3. Associate all his eBooks and Pi with that Adobe ID

ReplyDeleteYou said Pi2 is expected in September. Have you fixed any launch date? When will you share the list of features in Pi2
ReplyDeleteI live in Guwahati. Do u have any branch here?
ReplyDeleteHi Infibeam team,
ReplyDeleteI am awaiting for your Pi2 launch. Could you please confirm the date or is it postponed?
@Joydeep @Baskar Our goal is to get Pi2 launched by end of September :)
ReplyDelete@Prakash Sorry, we do not have a branch office in Guwahati. Our branch offices are listed at http://www.infibeam.com/static/branch-offices.html
i have owned a pi since march and was very very happy with it.But recently it stopped identifying books from the library and reset button did not help. After being taken through the reinstalling the firmware it seemed to work well for a day. Now the screen has vague black lines on over 2/3 of it with only the top 1/3 behaving normally.
ReplyDeleteYour customer service has been good thus far. I hope this problem can be solved soon too.

ReplyDeleteYou had mentioned earlier that Pi2 will be out by end of Sept. It's Nov now. Can you please provide an update? Will it be available in 2010?
