Spotted this ebook reader (Hanvon eBook Reader Wise Reader n516) at eBuyer site at 120 pound. Seem probably the lowest price you can get for a 5" reader.

More info at this wiki page and also a thread in mobileread exist.

Dealsdirect has them here for $250, anyone seen/used one?

I've had one for a few months now, overall I'm pleased with it, but it is a bit slow to change pages and switches itself off if you don't use it for a while. I like that you get a free cover with it so you can hold it like a proper book, the others I looked at you had to pay extra for those.

I have a clon (Woxter Scriba), it can read epub, doc, pdf and some other formats, not fb2, not mobi or prc. As mr ploppy, and compared with pb360, I think it's a bit slow in page turn, and loading new books. You can handle with one hand, and my sister, who is left-handed, says it's comfortable to her too. As extras, you can manage audio books, mp3 and record small notes (it has a micro entrance). Mine came with cover, ear phones, and usb charger, and a 2 gb sd card. If I remember, it can manage to 16gb without problem.

Yes, I bought one from OO.com.au, but I like the kindle better...

I understand it, me too. Mine was a gift, and I'm very happy with it, unless it's a bit slower than others and can not read all formats I'll like. But at this price, ... is cheap.
