And the Longshine Shinebook looked a lot like the the original Kobo / Kobo Wireless. The size and weight specs are close (but not exact).

That's because both the original Kobo and the Shinebook use a really old Netronix design. Bookeen also used it in 2007-2010, and so did Foxit and other companies.
FYI: All of the hardware we are talking about in this thread was made by Netronix, a Taiwan company.
