A small and trim e-reader with an intuitive interface and really well made MP3 support that lets you easily listen to music while reading. It only supports one file format (it’s own .stk format), and while it does come with a converter, it works less than exceptionally and sometimes turns Word Documents and PDF’s into random bits...

By all accounts, 2008 was a particularly bad year for newspapers. Ad revenues are down, subscription rates are dwindling and classified ad sales are virtually non-existent. Online competition has decimated the black and white lady, although most news junkies attest that the web doesn’t offer the same reading experience as print....

Brother is calling this e-reader a “Document Viewer,” since it features an A4 screen. It is larger and has twice the pixels of the Kindle 2.

This new display can handle some pretty powerful stress tests, and even boasts a nice resolution. The current prototype is only in black and white, but they expect a high color version ready to roll before...

FoxIt’s ESlick Reader is turning heads with their low cost solution to ebooks. The ESlick is debuting at around $299. This low price comes at a cost, however, since the ESlick Reader can only read one e-book format: pdf files. It does come with a free version of FoxIt’s PDF converter, so you can move any document into that format...
