A full-page placement due for the New York Times' Book Review next Sunday labels the reader as the Nook and says it will ship for $259, reaching the same price as the US Kindle. It also makes a direct reference to the previously leaked e-book lendin... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/19/barnes.reader.named.nook/ Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:15:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/08/barnes..noble.reader.would.have.virtual.keys/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/0910/irexdr300sg.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />(Updated with Android rumor) Barnes & Noble is developing its own high-end e-book reader to help boost its online store, a source close to its plans purportedly revealed this afternoon. Most features are unknown, but it would have a touchscreen and use an iPhone-like on-screen keyboard for searches and similar tasks. A wireless link is also seen by the Wall Street Journal as a key ingredient, th... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/08/barnes..noble.reader.would.have.virtual.keys/ Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:35:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/09/23/irex.dr.300sg.reader.official/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/0909/irexdr300sg.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />iRex today branched out to the US for the first time with its first e-book device intended specifically for the US. The DR 300SG has an 8.1-inch touchscreen e-paper display but centers first on its 3G access for accessing stores. It should support the Barnes & Noble bookstore out of the box for downloads but also recognize several other store format,s including Fictionwise, LibreDigital and New... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/09/23/irex.dr.300sg.reader.official/ Wed, 23 Sep 2009 16:00:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/24/irex.teams.w.barnes.noble/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0908/irex3greader-mockup.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />iRex today more officially stepped into the US market for e-book readers by cementing a deal for the Barnes & Noble online bookstore. The company now plans to integrate the digital book service both with its own readers as well as for "other devices." It's not specified which readers would be involved or when the deal will take effect.... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/24/irex.teams.w.barnes.noble/ Mon, 24 Aug 2009 15:55:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/06/irex.8in.3g.reader.leak/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0908/irex3greader-mockup.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />E-book device maker iRex has signaled it's planning to launch a smaller, touchscreen reader that would do battle not only with the Kindle but Sony's PRS-600 and other touchscreen devices. The unnamed device, a mockup of which has been sent to CNET, would be substantially smaller than the Digital Reader 1000 with an 8.1-inch display controlled by a stylus. It would have built-in 3G and, like the ... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/06/irex.8in.3g.reader.leak/ Thu, 06 Aug 2009 19:20:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/10/03/amazon.kindle.2.leak/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0810/amazonkindle2-leak.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Amazon's second-generation Kindle reader has already surfaced in a new leak to BGR this evening and promises to solve many of the first-run issues with the e-book device, which was nicknamed the "iPod of reading" in its first generation. The new model appears to have a similarly sized, high visibility e-paper screen as the original but has the promised rounder styling, albeit in a slightly larger... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/10/03/amazon.kindle.2.leak/ Sat, 04 Oct 2008 02:20:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/09/22/irex.digital.reader.1000/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0809/irexdigitalreader1000.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />iRex on Monday kicked off the debut of its promised e-book reader updates with the launch of its new Digital Reader 1000 series devices. With a 10.2-inch e-ink display, the readers are built to read very large documents and can handle letter-sized documents without resizing or having to scroll the text. A top-end version is also the first to bundle both 3G and Wi-Fi into one reader and can downl... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/09/22/irex.digital.reader.1000/ Mon, 22 Sep 2008 15:50:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/09/19/irex.reader.1000.leak/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0809/irexteaser.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />iRex's hinted-at Monday launch of a next-generation reader will primarily compete in terms of sheer size and connection choices, Forbes says in a pre-release leak. Potentially scrapping the iLiad name, the new e-book device would just be called the Reader 1000 and would outsize nearly any existing viewer of the type with a 10.2-inch e-ink display. The screen would be large enough to comfortably ... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/09/19/irex.reader.1000.leak/ Fri, 19 Sep 2008 15:40:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/09/18/irex.major.new.reader/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0809/irexteaser.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />The e-book reader designers at iRex today revealed through a teaser page that they plan a major update to their devices next week.

Normally used for devices such as the Amazon Kindle or basic displays on flash drives, the new cells are as much as 40 percent thinner and can be cut into either unusual 2D shapes or bent into regular forms, such as curves. They also survive harsher temperatures, the designer says, allowing the extremely po... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/05/09/e.ink.next.gen.e.paper/ Fri, 09 May 2008 21:15:00 GMT
