I saw this over at MobileRead.
What's striking is it's the first five-inch eInk screen eBook device. And the price is just
The design seems a lot like the Ectaco jetBook, except the row of buttons are now on the left side of the screen instead of the right. They are also now Sony Reader-style buttons.
With that five-inch screen, I expect it to be the size of the jetBook too. And the actual dimensions prove that guesstimate to be true:
Hanwang: 152mm x 108mm x 11mm
jetBook: 153mm x 109mm x 13mm

Now there's an idea for Sony to -- word of this week -- cramdown the price of the Sony Reader to a near-impulse buy price of $199: make one with a five-inch screen! Really, Sony, I don't think it'd matter much to people, the smaller screen. It'd be a fast and cheap intro to eBooks and they can always upgrade to the six-inch screen later!
