Fair enough - then the iRex device might be a better bet. And less proprietry.
might be. except i heard it will be $300-$500. with no deep pockets to subsidize and back it.
hmm iRex is a spin off of Phillips - thats fairly deep pockets.
way too much for a dumb terminal in this age...
Sure its quite expensive - but its only the 2nd or third e-ink based device out there and that is of course its biggest selling point - the readability of the screen. And besides - an ipod is $300 and it only plays music ...
