hmmm. This looks interesting. I still like old-fashioned paper, but something like this would be fantastic for commuting. Primary differentiator from current e-ink e-readers (sony, bookeen, et. al) is that it pulls in content (including daily newspapers!) over the EVDO cell network, and has the muscle of Amazon behind it. The latter means that it will have something like 90,000 titles available at launch. Not sure how that compares to other e-readers, but I’m guessing with Amazon driving things, most publishers will make an e-version of new releases available. Official announcement comes tomorrow. More at Gizmodo.
