I posted the photos of the prototype PB901 over here. I decided to post the rest and give a brief update on the status of the Pocketbook 302. The projected release date is March with a retail of $340.

PB302

6" E-ink screen
16 level gray scale
touchscreen
accelerometer
USB Host (no, that is not a typo)
Wifi
Bluetooth
SDHC card slot
FBReader
Additional software: RSS feed reader, Calendar, Notes, Sudoku

If the 302 follows the design philosophy of the 360, then installing new apps shouldn't be that hard. The 360 already has a new version of FBReader that makes use of the 360's accelerometer.
