There were supposed to be bigger "professional" eReaders released this Summer. I have a hunch that a problem - perhaps a fatal one - for both the Plastic Logic Que and the Skiff eReader is that there was nowhere near the clamor for such a device at the pricepoint such devices would have demanded. But who knows, maybe the Que will be released afterall. I'm sure News Corp. (which has purchased the Skiff platform to launch their "digital journalism" component) won't make an eReader, but maybe that project will be reborn at another company or as a startup.
