Yes, but it is an
LCD display. Uses a LOT more power than e-ink. (And, the display isn't e-ink, another minus imo!) The advertised battery life is "up to 22 hours." I'll take the 3 weeks or so of my e-ink device any day. I already have enough gadgets that need to be constantly recharged.
IMO, waiting a couple of weeks for the Sony 300, for an extra $30, would eb well worth it. Same size display (5"), much better quality (800x600 e-ink vs. 640x480 lcd), supports many formats, and FAR superior battery life in a smaller form factor.
