ASUS Eee Reader uses the e-paper (electr onic paper) technology , which mimics texts and images like on or dinary paper and does not use a backlight unlike the LCD panel display . This allows you to comfortably read e-books or e-ï¬Âles on your ASUS Eee Reader . But these features may pr ovide a slower screen r esponse time than the LCD panel display . The scr een r esponse slows down when I use my ASUS Eee Reader in cold temperatur e. A change in temperatur e may slow down the scr een r esponse on your ASUS Eee Reader . Use your ASUS Eee Reader in environments with ambient temperatur es between 5 o C (41 o F) and 35 o C (95 o F). Ther e ar e some visible shadows or imprints on my ASUS Eee Reader after some period of inactivity or when I use it in a high temperatur e envir onment. After some period of inactivity or in a high temperatur e envir onment, the images or texts on your scr een may partially leave some imprints or visible shadows, which is known as âÂÂghostingâÂÂ.
