GoodEReader: Wiskey developing Dual Screen Reader
GoodEReader claims Wiskey, the company behind the as yet unreleased EE WritePad, is developing multiple new products. One is a 9.7 version of the EE WritePad. The other is a dual screen LCD/e-ink reader.
Allegedly, the dual-screen device will be released "sometime this summer." I can't find a website for this company. Nor can I find any mention of the EE WritePad beyond another article on GoodEReader. Anybody heard of this company and the WritePad? https://goodereader.com/blog/electro...-a-dual-screen |

There's some information on this upcoming device from a more reputable site here:

oGadget, the developer mentioned on the digital reader blog, at least seems to be an actual presence. At least they have a website, etc.
"Wiskey" on the other hand, only gets me google hits taking me to goodereader, and to twitter and facebook references to goodereader. Things that make you go "hmmmmm"..... |

I found the product page the article is based on:
https://wisky.manufacturer.globalsou...cd-display.htm The mock image there indicates this is really very early development The image on goodereader blog is taken from this product by Intel: https://www.cnet.com/news/intels-tig...mobile-future/ I posted this on the article's comment section, but my comments were not approved. I guess I had to learn the hard way that goodereader.com is a very poor resource and should be mostly ignored. |

Based on the comments on oGadget's Facebook page, I'm staying far, far away from this device. |

I am hearing second hand that Wiskey has a closed FB group. Here are some videos they posted:

It seems this thread is never ever going to be about the only whisky that matters. No matter how many opportunities I give it to be so.
