Question Reflective TFT Reader with touchscreen

I am looking to buy a e-book reader which has a front-lit reflective TFT (not a backlit TFT one) with a touchscreen. B/W or color will do. The Jetbook and Libre don't have touchscreens. Except the Pixel Qi screen, I cannot find any options. I found the 7" ZTE Light 2 with Pixel Qi but no one knows the release date and NI Adam is beyond my budget. Please do give me some options. I will be grateful for any help.

Aluratek Libre Touch does in fact have a touch screen. Maybe you're talking about an earlier model. More info at

Yes, but Aluratek Libre Touch has a LCD backlit screen with a limited battery life which defeats the purpose of an E-book Reader for me. I saw a video on YouTube that Pixel Qi reflective is not quite as readable with contrast as the Kindle 3 e-ink screen. So I have dropped the Pixel Qi idea.
