Thanks to MobileReaders each and Stingo for the heads-up on this. It seems, according to Engadget, that iriver is getting in on the e-book game. They're currently showing off a prototype that comes with dual screens - for that truly book-like feel. Not much detail on the specs available at the moment, except: the device is powered by AAA batteries and features a touch-sensitive screen. The screen looks to be using our faithful e-ink technology, but this isn't 100% confirmed.

See for more pics and discussion in this MR thread.
