I've been having an email conversation the past two days with Cooper Chen, President of Innoversal Communications Inc., and he has assured me that the Innoversal Papyrus eReader will be available at the end of August. Their website is www.innoversal.com.tw, and they have the specs for both the Papyrus, and their Matrix Tablet PC. According to Mr. Chen, pricing at the moment is proposed at approximately $330 U.S. for the Papyrus, but he emphasizes that this is not hard and fast, it could change. Correction from Mr. Chen, it uses an 8" EPD from PVI, has 8GB of onboard memory, supports some kind of memory card (not specified) 8" screen and supports at least a half a dozen formats. They are currently in negotiations with content providers, no details there, but the device also contains WiFi, 3G and Bluetooth. Add a 0.6 second refresh rate, and it sounds like I've just found what I'm looking for!!!
