Introducing Eden – V The Browser
Hello,
Hoping you all enjoyed Christmas. Here we are with our next video in series. This time we present browser, letting the screen speak for itself. (Apologies for posting late, it’s Sunday here in India as well, and somehow this one is little longer with 4 mins with few benchmark tests! 
Remember I told you about some news in the last post? Let me write all that on the next post. From this week, we will limit the number of videos to 1 per 2 days)
(YouTube might take a little time for processing. The sides of the Adam are not visible this time, tried to make the visual screen little bigger, but I don’t think it added any visual advantage 
I think the lighting caused bad recording, sorry will do better next time.)
With Warm Regards
Rohan Shravan
Great job Rohan. awesome video.
Finally evidence for us cautious individuals.
Looking forward to CES and an announcement that major US retailers and Global retails will carry the revolutionary adam tablet. As thousands of us have followed adam for over a year now, its nice to know adam is indeed real.
Nice video, the browser seems to run smoothly
Can’t wait ’till CES
Hmm, good video, but no sound. Is the guy mute or a mime? Doesn’t he speak English. Also what’s with the swype from left to right? Is he highlighting or what? It would be much clearer if he explains what he’s doing.
New Guy.
+1.
No he dont speak english nor does Adam support English. I hope this product is no use for you. Dumbo.
And Peter doesn’t know how to read either! LOL
Rohan, can we have your clarification on one matter? The Android OS after 2.1 natively supports pinch to zoom. Since this is an Android OS, if we were to install the default Android browser onto the tablet, could we use pinch to zoom?
The build up is increasing day by day!!!
Adam will be the limelight in CES….
and all the websites will be full of praises from now…
John Biggs will be hiding from everyone
Maybe, just like there was a competition to create the Adam theme, there should be a competition to create commercials with the winning ads receiving new adams, or something……
Cool browser interface. Touch screen and the Eden design makes it user friendly even to those who had never been on a computer.
great! but maybe the tab switching could be smoother. tip: take a cue from opera mini 5.1 and opera mobile 10 regarding this.
Should take a cue from Emblazon’s Intuit UI. Their sPlay menu allows one to scroll through tabs using one-hand operation and the animation is amazing. Maybe use the UI for the future Eve smarthphone. They are currently looking to license it and I think this is Notion Ink’s opportunity to take over it after Emblazon canned their ELSE handset project
Some images of PQ screen. You can see the silverish/metallic screen I mentioned yesterday and Rohan today. They look good to me.

so there is going to be another post coming in any minute?
Yes, Anytime soon now
i thought its one post every alternate day….
since yesterday it was already posted i thought the nxt one is tomorrow….
i hope it today btw….
Oh man, that is soooo great. I love the browser, especially the cropping.. thats so important. I really would love to have a “read it later” button which downloads the page to the adam and put it into a “newspaper” style so that i can read it later, ipad got this application for blogs and facebook, but not for “read it later”…
by the way: awesome work,
I will fight to get my preorder placed next time…
Yes
THere’s a new vid on the Youtub channel
Looks Awesome
It’s downloading at my side. But The video is really looking awesome
And there is sound too!!
@Yogi, Thanks buddy for the amazing post.
Guys Freeze the video at 0.08 second and we can see the DESKTOP. Which we all wanted to see but still wanted to know dose Rohan really know this and permit the developer to post? We love the video but the question is does rohan liked it?
The mystery feature got to be GSM phone. I bet you for anything.
sorry guys. i didnt knew it was rohan’s video post. i was in this post and rohan got us a new post. i missed it.
Very very impressive!!!
So quick and responsive!
amazing….
There is a new Video!
The Sold out sign was taken off.
I just checked both the .com and .in sites.
I can still see the Bold SOLD OUT signs ?
where/when did you see it removed ?
I am also able to see the big red “Sold Out”
if elmelao did see it, which i hope he did, it must have been momentary!
hmm, interesting.. any link to the ‘news’ that Rohan referred to in his last 2 posts.
I really hope that pre-order starts again so that I can order mine
i ‘d like too as well!
provided i get some more information about the actual quality while playing high def multimedia on PQi compared to the LCD version.
Any idea if a pdf reader would be supported too? I have a lot of tech documentationwith daigrams in pdf and would like to be able to read them on the Adam.
any clues, anyone?
I guess Rohan has showed a pdf file couple of days back…Zooming was also showed in the detail. I guess it is in sniffer demo video.
Well, I also have so many technical pdf’s with diagrams. I was planing to buy a Kindle DX just because of that. (regular kindle is not good at reading tech docs).
But then I heard about Adam a year back, and since then I am following it. I believe, LCD will be more brighter and will have more colors as compared to the PQI one.
I am slowly making my mind to purchase the LCD one rather than the PQI. Reason is, my main use of Adam will be checking emails, surfing net, playing games, listening to songs and watching videos. Plus a little bit reading (that can be done in the LCD one, I’m not a regular reader). So I think, for me, LCD would be the right choice rather than PQi.
i guess mine is not too different a story.
What started out as the search for the greatest and the bestest E-Reader finally had me following Adam since for than one year now.
Missed out on the preorder is another story , though i’d really prefer if NI publishes a somewhat detailed feature list .. atleast whatever is possible pre-CES !
It (“SOLD OUT”) has been there for about a week now and U guys are seeing it now?
Oh.. I didnt read this first… So do u think there will be second round of pre-order? I want Pixel Qi+3G
I also wanted to buy the Pixel QI one, thats the reason I did not pre-order. But it seems I am so desperate now that I will even buy LCD one
Any idea how much will be the customs+tax charges for india? I just want to be sure on the total price
Nope…Will there be tax and customs both?? I thought we will have to pay customs duty only.
i did read a Rohan Sharavan interview somewhere saying that preorders would start again in a ‘couple’ of weeks.
How long is a ‘couple’ is something which we should get to know in less than a ‘couple’ of weeks ;->
True…’Couple’ varies from person to person…hahahahhaha
Rohan,
I am getting a bit ‘worried’. Your demos are turning out to be better especially this one -browser- better than ipad, nexus one etc. I am afraid the expectations in all of us (not to forget your critics) are going up every day.
Please keep some good things for CES or later.
Promise less and deliver more!
wishing you all the best!
Saw this amazing combinatiuon of sleeve and keyboard
“http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170579240445″
Wow…This is excellent
Will look forward to buy it once it get my Adam 
It will not fit Adam. It will fit IPAD size device and Adam is bit wider then IPAD.
If I were you I would check the dimensions before ordering. I have found a similar case on ebay and the dimensions are slightly too little (180mm max vs. th 191mm of the Adam). I think it’s better to wait until the adam is out: similar cases will be produced soon enough.

Dear Rohan we are your critic and always give you 5star not being partial but knowing you & Adam deserve it. We all know how you feel as CES is just few days ahead. l know you invested your Blood, sweat & life in NI and we pray your success. You made us believing in “Dream Big”, “Sky is the limit, “Nothing is impossible” and many.
I am being Indian like to see an Indian company shine among all. (Guys I hope it’s nothing wrong in being little patriotic, just like an American bikers feels for Harley Davidson).
There are few things which are so good its better to follow rather than challenging it. I am talking about marketing /Aggressive marketing.
Aggressive marketing is the key to higher sales and revenue. Now, any company can advertise through the newspapers, Internet, and radio however, TV advertisements and commercials are still the most effective marketing tool any company can utilize. TV reaches the widest audience and a simple 30 second commercial running 3 times a day can make a big difference. you will need to hire best commercial production company. If you have a specific way you want your commercial to be shot, then it would be wise to check if the production outfit has the right equipments for the job. For instance, if you are looking to have your commercial in high definition, then the commercial production company that you will hire should have these HD equipments at the ready.
An effective TV commercial makes a mark on the eyes and ears more solidly than other forms of media. TV addicts can ceaselessly promote your products on Facebook and other social networking sites if you are able to pull off your TV commercial correctly. Investing in the right TV commercial will open a lot of doors for your business, but the cost can be a bit higher than your usual flyer. Here are the steps in investing in an effective TV commercial:
•Concept. The concept is the main thing that will make the TV commercial sell. How to link a good concept to the product is the first stage in investing in an effective TV commercial. You might want to study the best commercials you have seen for the same product in the past five years. Your imagination is the key to this exercise. Be open to ideas and do not short list even the ones that you think are absurd or impossible.
•Target Market. Your target audience is the one that you will have to please, so you need to know them well. What makes them tick and what makes them become loyal to a brand are two questions that must be seen in the TV commercial. Your unique selling proposition for your target market will also help answer questions in the next steps of investing in an effective TV commercial.
•TV Network Airing Time and Frequency. In line with your target market and your selling proposition, you will choose the most viewed TV networks and offer your TV commercial at the time that is most viewed by your target market. Housewives tend to watch TV in the early morning, while the entire family tends to watch together during evenings at Primetime. You can choose to simultaneously get deals with rival networks so that you can get a lion’s share of viewers, but this is more expensive. You can try to rotate the airing venues, by getting a deal with one network for one month and changing it next month.
My best wishes to you and NI.

Keeping in mind the size of Notion Ink (production capacity and capital), it would not be prudent for it to communicate via TV Commercial. The Target audience who would go for this product exist in blogosphere, social networking sites, video uploading sites etc. It would be cost effective to have a proper web marketing strategy. TV commercial wud be more appropriate in the later part of product life cycle!

Hi Rohan,
Can you give us a teaser on what you will be showing/doing on CES?
As you know 2011 will be the year of the android tablets how do you think to manage to stand out?
I would suggest not to revel anything about it considering large number of tablets going to be showcased/launched at CES 2011. Competitors with poor tablet might use counterr marketing strategy as tool to win over criticism.
