Flexible Kindle killer coming 2010
Posted on 26 Jan 2009 at 11:03
Plastic Logic has confirmed that its flexible, super-tough ebook reader is slated for an early 2010 debut.
Plastic Logic's take on the ebook reader market has been making waves ever since the company's chief executive demonstrated its durability by hitting it with a shoe live on stage last year.
While that certainly caught the eye, it was the device's generous 8.5 x 11in touchscreen and wide-ranging document support that really makes this one to watch.
However, while the company has finally provided a tentative release date, it wasn't quite so forthcoming with pricing, which was described as "competitively priced for rapid adoption".
However, given that early models of the Plastic Logic reader are being aimed squarely at businesses, prices are likely to be above the ?200 price mark favoured by our current A-Listed Sony PRS-505 and its rivals.
