I tried to find any e-mail contact at Seiko Epson in Japan to ask more infos but haven't found any e-mail contact... so I'm here with this doubt... ;-)
Ciao!

Gotcha. Yeah, Epson's reader certainly *looks* interesting, but until it gets to the market, it's just vaporware. Oh, I'm not saying the display isn't available, just that the device itself may not become available for some time. Amazon took damn near a year and a half before it actually *released* the Kindle. Bookeen took nearly a year. Now, the market has iLiads, Kindles, PRS505s, V3s, Cybook Gen3s - and soon - Astak Mentors. Epson, while it has announced the availability of the new e-ink controller chipset, has not even announced when it's going to release this concept reader. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting.
