Abstract: An electronic reader system includes an electronic book and a stylus. The electronic book includes a battery and a cover. The stylus includes a pen body for writing on the electronic book to input data or commands into the electronic book, and an illumination member detachably attached to the pen body. The illumination member can be detached from the pen body and attached onto the electronic book, receiving electrical power from the book as it does so, to illuminate the electronic book.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an input unit, a memory, a page flipping control unit, a buffer, a display, a processor and a switching unit. The input unit generates flipping commands in response to operations of a user. The memory stores a document. The processor displays the document in response to a document opening operation of the user, retrieves a predetermined page range of pages of the document from the memory, and stores the retrieved pages of the document in the buffer. The page flipping control unit receives the flipping commands, accesses the buffer, and flips pages on the display. The switching unit is connected to the memory, the display, and the buffer, and establishes a connection between the display, the buffer and the processor or establishes a connection between the display, the buffer, and the page flipping control unit under control of the processor.

Abstract: An electronic device with a sleep mode includes a CPU and a monitoring unit. The monitoring unit includes a testing module, a storage module, a comparing module, and a signal generating module. The CPU falls into standby mode when the electronic device is in the sleep mode. When the comparing module determines any one of one or more parameters of a battery which supplies power to the electronic device measured by the testing module is not within a corresponding predetermined range stored in the storage module, the signal generating module generates signals to awake the CPU. The awaked CPU executes protection operation to protect the electronic device. A related method is also provided.
