Digitimes: Computex 2010 e-readers
Digitimes has a nice listing (with photos) of the e-reader devices sighted at Computex 2010 so far. Nice to see Asus 9" reader still seems to be in the works

Hooray! The ASUS readers are the whole reason I found this site--I'm researching my first e-reader purchase, and the 900 is at the top of my list. If it comes out sometime before September and for under $300, then I can quiet my itchy "Buy Now" finger until then.

Sigh. Computex as a whole is a disappointment. I haven't seen any promising tablet or ebook reader reports coming out of there, despite the massive tablet turnout.

Are you kidding. There is the ExoPC which looks amazing. There is a battery issue but it is still being tweeked. The Asus window reader also looks very promising. To think that I can buy a reader where I don't have to worry about the fight between epub and Mobipocket is refreshing.

Asus didn't have anything real going on either. The EP101TC is promising but horribly unfinished, and the EP121 is a pretty big (in more ways than one) unknown. There were no new-gen EPD products, no decent e-paper products, no real products with near-term launch dates, and no decent iPad competitors. Was hoping for a few Pixel Qi announcements, but only got more concepts and one dubious tablet announced from a no-name company. I guess it's to be expected, as Computex isn't really about showing real products or announcing launch dates in the near-term. Last edited by LDBoblo; 06-06-2010 at 04:30 PM. |
