If you are craving a Sony Reader by now, but live in Europe, you may want to consider the iLiad by Dutch company iRex Technologies. It is an e-reader like the Sony Reader - but it can also do so much more. You can read anything you like, write like on paper, exchange documents, receive new contents and sync with your computer.
The iLiad is a portable device that lets you read and write as you do on paper everywhere you go.
Everything you like to read, like books, newspapers and documents, you can now take along on a device as small and light as a single book. Even in bright sunlight the display of the iLiad offers you perfect readability. With the iLiad can you also send, receive and share documents with family, friends or business colleagues.
Just as with normal paper, you're able to make notes and annotate existing documents, but unlike paper your annotated documents and notes can easily be transferred to a PC or another iLiad. Your friends and colleagues can also add remarks or edit your notes and return them to you. The iLiad is not just about serious stuff, you can also do Sukoku and Crossword puzzles, read comics and sketch or draw on it.
Anything you can print from your PC can be read on the iLiad. You can also download books and other information from the internet. You can even receive digital subscriptions to international newspapers on an iLiad.
The iLiad has a wireless connection to automatically download content and updates over the Internet. You can also connect the iLiad directly to any PC with a USB cable. The iLiad Companion software enables you to easily transfer and manage the documents between your PC and the iLiad.
The iLiad can hold dozens of books and documents. Memory capacity can be increased simply by inserting a Compact Flash or MMC card, just as with digital camera. You can even insert your USB-stick into the iLiad to quickly read content.
The paper-like display of the iLiad produces a stable image, unlike a flickering PC screen. So the reading experience with the iLiad is much more comfortable, enabling you to go on for hours without tiring your eyes.
The display only consumes power when a page is turned so the power consumptions is very low. And just think of the paper you can save. You no longer need to rely on printed editions of newspapers, books or your own printed documents and notes!
You can buy the iLiad from iRex directly for Euro 649, which includes the iLiad, stylus, travel hub, USB cable, power adapter
and a quick start card.
