I guess I put this in a "sticky Thread" by mistake, so here goes in the main area. Sorry for the duplication, but there were no factual replies.

Its about November already. Plastic Logic stated last month that their Que e-reader will be announced in early January and probably available some time about late Jan/Feb 2010. Netronix appeared to be aiming for about the same timescale with their 9.7" reader.

We have heard little for two months about Astak's Mentor reader 9.7" readers, and the last said was that all the larger readers were waiting for the screens to be made in Mid-September. Well, it is November now, so have the larger screens yet even been delivered to the e-reader manufacturers? I did hope that Astak would beat Plastic Logic to market by a week or two, if they hoped to grab some market share. Is there any news you can give us...any hope at all.
