@tikal111 yes the iPad looks like a big iPod touch. But if you’ve ever used one one you’d get it! it really is so much different!!!!!!! the apps are insanely amazing on it! You can also use iWork!!!!!!!!
Now this is awesome, much more useful then the stupid ipad. Screw apple! I’ve always been a big ipod fan but all they do is release the same thing over and over again. Ipad = giant ipod whats even worse is apple said there is nothing in the works for the adobe flash update, witch you need for just about everything web wise. not to mention they never give you enough space for anything and you have to shell out almost a grand just to get 64gb of space, i could max that in 5 min. Buy the edge
Why not just get a tablet laptop? The eInk I’m sure has an additional layer on top to recognize input, making the text blurier, and making reading on this harder. I really don’t see the point of this where tablets are around. I can put my Sony reader in my back pocket. Not this. So it won’t beat dedicated readers.
two things that might be interesting: with a following device to this it should be able to detach one side from the other – and there should also be a built in smartphone which
can be detached when needed. an all-in-one
device (also photo- and videocam and projector) would be nice.
the edge is actually pretty impressive compared to what is out right now, but when it is released in february it could be a whole new ball game, what with smart books and faster arm cpus, and perhaps slate format smartbooks or the apple tablet
very nice concept… but it lacks he styling and refinement of a product from apple or android
just buy the ipad ffs. like the rest of the world!

It looks so early 80′s… almost like a gadget from Thats 70′s show.
that is so stupid the ipad is so much better
Ruining the MS Courier expectancies.
@ferdinmd
Is this even comparable to the iPad? the iPad isn’t an ebook reader. You may as well compare it to the Archos 5 or the Microsoft Zune.
PRETTY STUPIDIF U ASK ME
looks like an ugly version of the Microsoft courier
@lowmax64 I like the fact that it has a book format so you can type on one screen and see what you type on the other instead of an awkward tilt. :]
That does not look like a comfortable to use ebook or netbook. I’m not interested.
hope someone make a hitchhikers guid to the galaxy edition of that thing.

@fafaforza the sensitive layer is under the eink layer.
netbook doesn’t have a 16 hour battery life
cool but a netbbok is better or even a laptop

actually the touchlayer is under the e-ink display like a wacom, not making it blurry

@hoelk: would be nice if the keyboard could be set that it automatically changes with angle you´re holding the device.

I’m impressed. Too bad I already bought a Kindle 2.
cann the on-screen keyboard only be used with the pen or do fingers also work? and is it possible to make it full-screen?
Looks awesome!
The processor is a Marvell Armada PXA168
Battery Life is 16 Hours with E-Ink only
6 Hours with LCD
Will pay extra if “Amy” comes with the device. As an aside, Entourage headquarters is right down the street from me.

This may be a rare situation where the way you used the word “literally” may actually be grammatically correct.
