I've been using Google translate and its doing an alright job so far, here's some more:

Txtr can communicate via WLAN, Bluetooth, GPRS or UMTS. If these techniques are active, which is expected to significantly reduce battery life. Costs are incurred for the user when data is transferred. Wizpac is here to offer different data rates, details are not yet available. First, for Germany and other European countries, agreements with other foreign mobile providers are still being negotiated. Additional costs to the user of course fee for the purchase of content, such as e-books.

There is also an unspecified wireless interface, the user texts directly between txtr devices can share
Holy crap, if what they're saying is I can send books from one Txtr to another, then I'm definitely in. This is getting better and better

Quote:
The software of the txtr based on Linux and is open for developers. "We must not hack into the device cumbersome or unscrew, if he wants to have certain features," Any information would be documented and made available. The reader will start to market all relevant formats support, including PDF, HTML, Office, Epub, but for example, Powerpoint. For the support of additional formats would be asked the developer community.
Open Source too? Holy source-code, Batman!
