6) Rooted device *)
7) 2GB (internal), 4 GB (external)

*) I rooted the device according to the instructions:
http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/PRST1_R ... and_Tweaks
Many of the Android applications can be installed, in particular Pleco ('Beta 7' and 'Beta 8').
As a reader software I use Cool Reader 3. To look unknown Chinese words, I copy them to the clipboard, open Pleco and look at the entry in one of it's dictionaries.

The only problem that I have with Pleco is to use cutom Chinese fonts. Even if I install them in the given location, the default Android font is still displayed.
I know that Pleco (as a lot of Ancroid applications as well) is not optimized for E-ink devices, but I can live with that.
In general: Pleco for Android Beta 8 is close to release. Gread job!

My Palm Zire 72 died on me last week so I finally have a valid reason to spend cash on a shiny Android phone :D I was just wondering if you could point out any pros/cons of running Pleco on the Chacha vs the more common portrait devices that don't have a hardware keyboard.

I once owned a Palm Treo 680 and typing was very accurate so I probably would enjoy the keyboard. I had a play with a Chacha at a local shop and the keyboard felt great, but I am a bit concerned about 1) screen size and 2) software support in general (not just Pleco). Your input will be very helpful!
