Hi!

The idea is not to make a perfect all-in-one device, but to combine a few functions in a better way, than earlier.

The ereader can obtain a few smartphone functions, in such a way that the ereading experience will not suffer, and the smartphone experience will not suffer too much, and will provide sufficient use for those people, who do not use smartphone camera, video and sophisticated games, and thus will provide mostly the 3G/4G support, some internet navigation, skype, email check up, simple games, wi-fi, bluetooth, etc..

So, what I suggest is the E-READER WITH THE SMARTPHONE FUNCTIONS (not the e-ink phone with the ereader functions):

1. 6 inch display, sufficient for occasional reading of a book. Smaller display will not be good for comfortable reading.
Resolution: 1024 x 768 (minimum)
Grayscale 16 Levels.
DPI 213
Contrast: 10:1

Capacitive touchscreen for finger touch and electromagnetic touchscreen for stylus.

2. Two sim support (two sims are good for many countries, with competing cell companies).
3. 3G/4G. Both sims support at least 3G.
4. Flexible emobius screen (not carta, because emobius is flexible). (Earlier there was no mobius, and so in the onyx e-ink phone the e-ink was covered with glass, which made it difficult to read under sunlight, and so it was not good for outdoor reading).
5. Stylus, for annotations and alternative navigation.
6. 3GB-6GB operative memory.
7. 16-32GB minimum of inbuilt memory.
8. External memory card support (additional slot, not sharing the one of the second sim card).
9. Wi-fi (optional)
10. Browser.
11. Android (4.4 version or later).
12. Battery: 6000 mah. Preferrably: 10000mah.
13. Frontlight.
14. Bluetooth 4.0.
15. Support for reading texts: pdf, epub, doc, modi, djvu, txt, chm, rtf, fb2, other formats. Support for image formats: jpg, png, others.
16. MicroUsb.
17. Goople play (optional)
18. Built in Speaker and Microphone.
19. Audio support: mp3, wav, others.
20. Audio out, 3.5 mm.
21. Aluminium/plastic case.
22. Cover.
23. Optional version 1: with small solar panel inbuilt,
optional version2: with solarenergy cover
(makes it more expensive)
24. Weight (without cover): 220-350g.
26. Camera (optional). If proved useful for taking photos of the text. No video. No gps.
25. Price: $150-300.
26. Can be developed optionally in two versions:

1. Good processor, not lower than MTK6735P. 2GB operative memory minimum. Plastic case. No internet security software. Long time of standby. Battery: minimum 6000 mah

2. Better processor, more than 3-6GB operative memory. Aliminium case. USB host (support for wired keyboard or mouse). Battery: better than 6000 mah.

So, if someone needs a regular e-reader, no need for e-ink phone, for phones have some "sar" thing, which is not good for health, even if minimal).

Benefit: no need to carry two devices, when there is a need to read occasionally.

There is no need for many to have a more expensive fancy smartphone with two displays. A lot of people use smartphones basically for calling, sms, sometimes skype, internet, they do not use it for games, video, etc).

Brand name: Readerphone

Should there be some considerable interest, I will think of gathering a few reliable people with good repution to come up with some indiegogo or kickstarter funding campaign.
