Sipix eReader - $20
Here's your chance to own a piece of ebook history.
I just found a couple boxes of old ereaders in my closet. They are all the same model - one of the ereaders sold by Pandigial during its brief existence. It wasn't much of an ereader then, and I sure would not recommend it to readers now, but collectors might be interested. This ereader has a Sipix screen. This was an E-ink competitor that never amounted to much. Few ereaders used its screens, and only a few units were sold, making them a rare commodity. I have a box of ten (10), and I am selling them for $20 each plus shipping. (Fun fact: That's how much I paid for them eight years ago, after Pandigital died.) P.S. I am also going to sell off my collection, if anyone is interested. |

$68 on Amazon for the 6" so maybe you have under-priced them.

Not sure if it was obvious but my post was meant as a joke. There is or used to be a digital museum in San Jose and maybe also in Boston. You could try asking them if they'd like them.
