I think they're both discontinued, although there are some still on the market. I have both and would advise you to avoid the JetBook Mini unless you really understand the limitations AND can get it very cheap. Most of the "new" ones I've seen out there are priced in the $80 to $110 range, and you will feel sorely ripped off at those prices!
On the other hand, if "cheap" is important you might look into small Android tablets. Newegg has several 4-inch models for under $40. I had one for more than a year before I damaged the touchscreen on a vacation. It ran several ereader Apps, had wifi, had a camera, etc. Not much built-in memory, but it could take a micro-SD card for storage. It was slightly smaller than my cell phone, so it easily fit in my pocket.
