eBook Readers: Be afraid, Amazon. Be very afraid

[sparkchaser]

Be afraid, Amazon. Be very afraid

Snip:

The Times of London is reporting that netbook pioneer Asus plans to launch an ebook reader by the end of the year. Unlike Amazon's Kindle or Sony's Reader, though, the Asus tablet is said to be full colour and feature dual screens on a hinged spine. They're also aiming to make it the cheapest e-reader on the market, with a price starting around $160 (U.S.). From the company that brought us the miniature, low-cost laptop, this is not idle talk.
