I would LOVE this new mirasol e-reader! I'm so sad that it's only in South Korea.

I wouldn't mind paying the price for it because it is the only thing that is colour and e-ink. Oh, I hope some good ones come out next year.

The only thing I wish e-ink readers would improve is processor speed. I have a 950, so one of the better ones (though probably not the best processor), and I lament its slowness on anything requiring more than simple page turns. The Kyobo demo videos made it look like it was fast, but that may not really be the case. Well, even if it was slow, I'd still pay the $300 to have colour e-ink.
