I did not have time to take a picture of the menu yet, and I don't have my reader with me. But, I went on Aluratek's website and can say that the menu of the Libre Color found here : (http://aluratek.com/libre-color-eboo...th-7-color-lcd) is different. Also, when I look at the description, here are some differences I can see :

- Libre Color seem to have SD slot, Hip street is Micro-SD.
- Hip Street does not play Mpeg-1 or MPeg-2 videos
- Libre seems to support DRMed-epubs - Hip Street doesn't

I would honestly say the Hip Street has less features, but hey, it's a color e-reader for 78 $ !!!! And a good video player. But that's it!
