German Hanvon's showing a new ereader
German Hanvon website (not the English one: how strange) is showing a new ereader I've never heard of before: WISEreader B630

http://www.hanvon-deutschland.de/htm...ader_b630.html


looks like a 6" N520, in fact.

I wonder how many different models (for different markets) they made.

So do 82.7% of the generic no-name ebook readers made in China.
The other 17.3% look like Sony 505s.

It is probably not a Kindle as the unit pictured is showing left justified text

Looks like you are limited to turning pages with your left thumb. A sore issue with me.

Poor ergodynamics.

You'll also be able to press the right arrow button in the bottom right of the keyboard. I have the Elonex-badged 5" version of this and that arrow button is in just the right place when I hold it in my right hand.

The 5" version is a pretty good machine all round, so this looks like a nice device to me.
