PocketBook 902 is on sale now, for $279.99 only. You won't find an e-reader with the large screen for this money.
Wait a second, isn't 902 an older model? 912 is newer or am I missing something?


There is one other opition - a 10.7 inch model called Plastic Logic 100 with touch screen and annotation, which is reviewed here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHNfv9_G3jE (in Russian).

I am not very good at Russian, but I am catching that:

1) You can't buy this unit in shops (ok, so where do you get it from, he does not say!)
2) It comes pre-loaded with text books for year 5-7 in Russian state schools - it is some kind of government initiative.
3) Nevertheless the unit seems very good, watch how he displays a maths text book and a a biology book with detailed pictures.

It's kind of funny when the guy takes out a yellow marker and you think "wait, is he going to mark the ebook reader?!" then he proceeds to jab the screen of the ebook reader to demonstrate how durable it is.

Anyone knows anything about PlasticLogic 100 ?
In my opinion this product fills a niche, it's seems silly that it should be availablle only to school children in one particular country. Seems perfect for any university student.
