while not a huge surprise, the poor Alex was born under bad signs. Still I like that it offered a PDA type LCD screen with the 6" E-ink brand upper screen. Basically it could have been a Pocket Edge all-in-one type device only with a smaller color panel.
I think they just missed the timing and wasn't there a legal dust-up with the Nook? I forget.
Oh, well, it won't be lonely over the next 18-months as lots of devices are not gonna pass the user "smoke test" and will just go *poof*.
