Touchscreen? What in the hell for? Touchscreens seem cool, and it is "chic" to have one.
But no advantages at all - on the contrary!
Besides, and as many already said, no Epub?
I cantīt see what can this device offer to someone who as an Sony Reader, Kindle, iRex ou Cybook... And for those who have not already bought a dedicated e-reading device, will most probably prefer something that as proven itself on the market.
On last thing: is THERE market for all the players comming out? I doubt.

"Full Screen Scribble
Together with E-ink display, full screen scribble will bring you real handwriting experience without compromising screen brightness or contrast. Search, annotate, highlight, and input text easily with a pen."
I am pretty sure Kindle & Cybook do not have this. Personally, I would not have any use for this feature, but some may like it. WinCE operating system might mean that you would be able to install some applications that were created for PDA's on this device. Some (including me) might find this appealing. It might also mean FOLDER SUPPORT. How's that for one over Cybook (and I think also Kindle)?
And I also think that it is a nice looking device (Better looking that Kindle or Cybook) that could have a good functionality. Even thought it IS kind of thin, which makes me think "BROKEN SCREEN". Why there are no Rhinoskin covers for those things???
