Does anyone know anything about this model?

This should be a colour capable 10" ereader based on the 3qi screen (instead of eink). That LCD screen has a bw reflective mode, a low power colour mode and a normal, bright colour mode. The bw mode seems to be rivaling eink when there is a lot of ambient light and the backlit colour mode can be used in the dark for night reading.

If they make it powerful enough, this could be the killer web / email / reader device.

I would be very much interested in the specs of this machine (ram, cpu...etc) in order to decide if it is worth waiting for it.
