Younger Brother to SV-100B around the corner

rhari79 · 02-03-2010, 07:54 AM

Hi,

Noticed this news in Akihabaranews.com about a followup to the Expensive Brother SV-100B device.
There is supposedly a new device in the works: SV-70, same form factor, with some differences and supposed to come out on Feb 20.

Also found more information(japanese)/pics in the Brother Site:

http://www.brother.co.jp/product/epaper/index.htm

Differences I could make out in SV-70:

Lesser Storage capacity
No Bluetooth
Does not include: AC charger adapter and SoftCase.
Some difference in operation temperatures..
Support for Windows 7(SV-100B launched before the W7 release).
Hopefully it is cheaper than its greedy elder brother.

Now what is the price?
Is this the device that was mentioned as having a price with one less zero?

I'm still waiting to hear the price. It will be cheaper than the older model but it will still have the same level of document control.
