The Epson chip only add some method to refrech only a portion of the panel instead of the whole panel like for the Apollo(PRS500/Cybook GEN3) or the Metronome (PRS505.)


But I can't understand how they could manage to sell a color eBook reader at less than $300 when they don't even ship their current device and it's price is at about $250/270...

(and it seems to me that even the cases is not an exclusivity of cool-er, I don't remember where but I'm pretty sure that I already saw such cases on other "cybook" clones)

(And I don't understand how they can claim and be proud of making this in only 3 weeks... Saying this is just a demonstration on how long they work on the product and what they do in it: absolutely nothing except design the Cool-er logo!)
