Einkbro is a seriously good tablet browser

I just need to mention it again.

This is an Android browser aimed at E-Ink devices (though it works for any Android device). It's optimised foir E-Ink's strengths and weaknesses.

That actually makes it a really good browser for reading content online, which ... it turns out a whole hell of a lot of present-generation mobile browsers kind of suck at.

The developer's also highly responsive and I've seen a few of my own issues and requests addressed, which is a breath of fresh air. Oh, and it's FOSS.

Cool! Does optimised for e-ink mean that it avoids scrolling?

Because that seems like something that I would like, since I'm increasingly feeling that scrolling kinda wastes everyone's time and energy for not much return.

omg and using the Volume hardbuttons for Page Up/ Page Down! That's genius!

because the Volume buttons are things I (almost) never use, because my phone is not an iPod
