Sony dumping current reader stock?
An article from the unofficial Kindle blog has noted that Sony seems to be closing out its current generation of readers. New readers on the way?

No, it may be the end for Sony's stand-alone e-readers as their Tablets S1 and S2 are about to hit the shelves next month.

Given that they've already pretty much announced that they're coming out with a new gen, they bring out a new gen every fall, and in July they asked for a 45 day privacy window with the FCC over a submission that appears to be ebook related, then I would say, yes. New readers soon

If it will really turn out to be a 10" tablet, it's not a replacement for a 6" device.

Doesn't seem much of a sale? I have seen them cheaper at Walmart and Futureshop for unrefurbished ones

![]() You have previously posted a thread last month showing the FCC Page concerning a Sony Reader: https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/...845330&fcc_id=. Now the question is, how much will they charge for this device? Last edited by Joseph R; 08-26-2011 at 05:49 PM. |
