Big news!

With flexible subscription options for reading, listening, or both, Kobo Plus makes discovering your next favourite book easier than ever.

"After teasing the “world’s first dual-screen color E Ink + LCD smartphone,” Bigme has announced its new HiBreak Dual. The Android 14 phone features a 6.13-inch color E Ink screen on the front and a 1.85-inch circular LCD on the back. It also supports a pressure-sensitive stylus, while April 16th preorders will start at $359."

These form factor devices look interesting to me but I haven't yet been compelled (thankfully) to part with my money for any of them. The vendor in particular, Bigme, has been tricky for me - their last collaboration with Pocketbook (Inkpad Eo, afaik) resulted in a somewhat compromised device in spite of Pocketbook's valiant efforts to make it work. But I admit I still stare at articles featuring these devices with attention - maybe I just need to find them used/refurbished .
