Well, I might be mistaken, but I think iRex colour device will be released 2011. B&N's 2010. So it seems that it will be B&N's ereaedr that will be more "game changing" next year.

No? I've imported books from them in the past. Or do you mean that they will do with their ereader the same Amazon did with the Kindle? I hope not.

Hey, please forgive me; I do realise that there are avid bookworms out there who do also want colour newspaper and magazines and documents on the train to work, so this ain't meant as a dig. Just that I don't want to see a hike in reader prices when the competition decides to chase colour.

I would like to read manga and comic books in ereaders too. And many more technical (e)books certainly would benefit greatly from colour use. Colour would be useful indeed.
