Rumors are it's 7" color, touch, and android based. If it's LCD screen, forget it. Yet another tiny iPad clone, nothing special other than the price. Most likely that, since there are several already out there and no buzz on other techie sites about 7" color e-ink yet available this quarter (most say 2011 for that). If it's color e-ink and has good resolution, quick page turns, and decent battery, then I may be interested. I just hope they eliminate the annoying and useless lower LCD screen if it is a newer e-ink color screen. Otherwise, I'm sticking with a Kindle 3, because of the light/small size, 6" pearl e-ink, and quick page turns (compared to the Nooks I've used).
