If it is, would you tell me the make please?
As for making a 13 inch reader for E-ink: My impression is that this would mean slow graphics, books taking minutes to load and new pages flickering whileloading. That's apparently the issue with those large readers that are on sale in Russia - forgot the make. There are some rather offputting reviews on Youtube, suggesting that they simply don't put fast enough hardware into the large-screen devices. In order to perform flawlessly they need better spec components. E-ink screens just take more power to generate the output, I guess!
I guess the market just isn't big enough to create a real a la carte model that BOTH has a large screen, AND fast components.
I'd certainly be willing to pay what it costs, but it seems I am in the minority. Most people want a budget device and it's hard to produce quality large screen e-ink cheaply.

I was referring to Sony 13.3 inch eink reader to be released in 2014:

As for large screen ereaders being slow: I don't think the same way. I assume the process of loading the graphics is parallel or simultaneous, though it will consume more power
