I like gadgets. I also like books. So when I saw this new kid on the block in the eB00k reader space, I thought I ought to let people know! Firebox.com are retailing this bad boy, and from the looks of things, it comes packing a decent spec:
| Screen | |
| Size | 6″ |
| DPI | 170px /inch |
| Type | E Ink® Vizplex |
| Hardware | |
| Operating System | Linux |
| Storage | 1GB |
| Memory | 128MB |
| Processor | Samsung® S3C2440 ARM 400MHz |
| Battery | Li-Polymer battery (1000mAh) |
| Battery Life (single charge) | 8000 page |
| Memory Expansion | SD Card (up to 4GB) |
| Compatibility | |
| PC | Yes |
| Mac | Yes |
| Supported Formats | PDF, EPUB, FB2, RTF, TXT, HTML, PRC, JPG, MP3 |

I think the price-point is about right too – £199.95 seems fair, especially if you are going to pack a whole lotta books on there. eBook Readers don’t chime well with some people, but for those of us that do like the concept, I think you could do far worse that his great little product.
