In addition to the ebook formats, the City Light HD also supports a wide variety of Office document and image formats, RAR and ZIP compressed file formats, and it can play MP3, WMA, and WAV audio files. It offers the same format support as the previous models, including Epub, PDF, FB2, Mobi, PRC, DJVU, and PDB. The City Light HD was customized for the Ukrainian market by Aeron. It also has built in speakers as well as an audio jack. It comes with 4GB Flash storage, a microSD card slot, and Wifi. Other than that this is a fairly ordinary ereader. But I suppose they had a good reason for the design. Given the marginal cost of adding a touchscreen, this struck me as rather odd. While it does have a front light attached to the HD E-ink screen, there is no mention of this ereader having a touchscreen component nor did the promo video show the touchscreen being used (just the d-pad). The Airbook City Light HD caught my attention last week because, unlike many other ereaders on the market, this one appears to be lacking a touch screen. The City Light HD might not be the first ereader to use an HD E-ink screen, but it is the first to ship in the Ukraine (not counting the Kindle Paperwhite). The Ukrainian ereader maker Aeron unveiled their newest ereader last week. Pocketbook got a lot of attention last week when they announced the 8″ Color Lux ereader but that wasn’t the only new ereader to be revealed.
