Delstar OpenBook at Walgreens

I started to post this under the news thread, but wasn't sure if it belonged there (Don't want to get into trouble)

Anyway, I saw this in my Sunday paper. Walgreens is selling the Delstar Openbook E-book Reader with color LCD Screen. Right now it is available through online purchase only (not in stores). Regular price is $149.99, Sale price is $99.99 Here is a link to the site:

I had to pay $5 flat shipping fee plus tax .

I am amazed that now drug stores are selling ebook readers. Wow, things are changing. Maybe now that it is just under $100 more people will be willing to try ebooks. From what I can tell it doesn't support DRM, but there are people that prefer this. It does support these formats:

ANSI, UNICODE TXT, DOC, PDF, HTML, FB2, PDB, and EPUB

I had been waiting for the Simplicity reader that JC Penney had on their site, but that doesn't seems like it will ever happen. So this may be a good alternative.
