The Brother SV-100B reader will be available this June 1st.

This 9.7inch reader has some interesting features that have not been seen on these size devices so far.

9.7inch 150dpi eInk screen
Bluetooth connectivity which can extend a PDA's display
MicroSD card slot (Max 2GB)
83 Hours of continuous use battery life
PIN code to lock and encrypt the data

Unfortunately there is no information about what markets this will be available in and what document formats it will support. The specifications state "proprietary format" and it looks to have a similar print to device driver like feature that the iRex DR1000 provides.
