Tonight I will try to find out more on approximate timeline and thoughts on probable features (without giving out anything they consider confidential).

WHY I am mentioning this is the MobileRead Forum community, in particular, has wanted a 9.7 for what seems like forever... since the first day of this thread certainly. It is early and please so not get excited... but the planning is there!

If you are faster than PlasticLogic (2010) and cheaper (not just a bit - I'm talking about a FAIR price) than iRex, you will win the game!

I can't wait for a device with a larg screen (e.g. for comics), I would go for an overpriced 500-600€ iRex, but I'm afraid of breaking a 500€ thing....


btw: These pictures are looking way to grainy! Especially the screen shouldn't look like that if you don't want to discourage your customers! http://www.mobiebook.com/6_ez_reader.asp
