but as dennis says, this would need color displays to really work.
I agree, for magazines, colour is needed; more greyscales will work for others. Though as I have been previously educated they are currently fine for Manga.

These parts aside, how do they differ from the Kindle. I find it a really easy way to read a number of newspapers and magazines (okay the selection is small, but the idea is there). Or the current Orange Read&Go trial for that matter.

(I wonder what would have happened if this issue of Esquire had been available on the Kindle....)
