Readius ebook reader video review
Matt Miller has been a very busy boy in Barcelona this week and got a great hands-on look at the most innovative ebook reader to come along yet, the Readius. It’s a nicely constructed device with that innovative foldout e-Ink screen and even has an HSDPA phone inside. Take a look at Matt’s review and video and watch how fast the page turning screen refresh is on the Readius. I’ll bet Matt will have one of these babies this year.




Very nice concept. I don’t particularly care about the phone but as Windows CE, I could use eReader Pro. That would be nice.
Let’s see: a bit smaller than my iPaq; MUCH larger screen than my iPaq.
Now if it is priced reasonably

I think it is a great concept as well but am wondering about the price and why they are trying to go with their own proprietary system.
No more than $250 for any ebook reader I think is the sweet spot for maximum traction.
But opening it up to eReader, MobiPocket, etc is a better way to go than yet another DRM system.
I have no interest in its phone capabilities but I would be interested to find out more about a price and what formats it would support.
And also, it was clear from the video but, would it stay open like a regular book or do you always have to hold it open?

It might be faster because it’s a smaller screen than the Sony Reader or the K?
