No launch date yet but the thing looks interesting!

2 or 4GB of internal memory seems quite decent!

In case you missed the details first time around, ASUS' reader features a 9in Sipix touchscreen display offering a 1,024x768 resolution and 16 shades of grey. There's no physical keyboard as a result of the aforementioned touchscreen, but there is a virtual alternative as well as handwriting input, too.

Text-to-speech features as standard, as does an RSS reader and dictionary, and ASUS has also thrown in a built-in web browser that'll work in both portrait and landscape modes. Connectivity comes in the form 802.11g, HSPA and WiMAX, and though there's no mention of content partners yet, the DR-950's 4GB of built-in memory and SD expansion slot should provide plenty of storage for your TXT, PDF, ePub, MP3 and Audible files.

We're still missing the all-important launch date and pricing details - for both the pictured DR-950 and the 6in colour DR-570 - but three more pictures, including a useful iPhone size comparison, are available after the page jump.

No problem, Zzyzx.

(I've done the same thing myself.)
