    iriver Story Reviewed: Nice, But No Kindle...or Reader

    PC Pro reviewed the iRiver Story. And to no one's surprise, it's not a bad eBook/PDF reader, but it's too expensive compared to more established competitors. More »

    Spring Design's Injunction to Stop Barnes & Noble's Nook Sales Denied

    While waiting for a court date over an intellectual property dispute, Spring Design wanted to stop Barnes & Noble from selling the Nook. Their injunction for that's been denied today, but they shouldn't really worry much over that anyway. More »

    Alex Reader Hands-On Lusty Pictures

    There was a lousy video, but coming from the generation that had crushes on girls with staples on their belly buttons, I prefer these glossy pictures of the Alex Reader. And I don't mind its extra thickness. More »

    Barnes & Noble's Nook May Violate Spring Design's Alex Reader Intellectual Property

    Spring Design's Alex reader seemed very similar to Barnes & Noble's Nook. I thought that Spring Design was the copycat, but based on the lawsuit they filed for violation of intellectual property, it may be the other way around. More »

    First Flexible Ebook Reader Developed By Tiremaker Bridgestone

    When not making tires, Bridgestone is working on ebook readers so flexible that they'd probably survive being driven over. They've even got a prototype ready for testing, but no plans to commercialize the slender and bendy device at this point. More »

    MSI's eReader Will Have Nvidia Tegra Graphics in 2010

    That rumor about an MSI eReader looks good-to-go: their chairman acknowledges a reader with Tegra graphics is coming, but they're ironing out some problems at the moment. Meanwhile, Asus also has some some cool-sounding readers in the works. [DigiTimes]

    Barnes & Noble Nook Won't Be Sold in All B&N Stores, for Some Reason [Updated]

    Barnes & Noble has a leg up on the Kindle, since they've got over 700 brick-and-mortar stores where they can sell the Nook. But BN will only be selling the Nook in certain stores, pushing delayed-gratification online sales instead. Updated. More »

    Don't Get too Excited About the Nook's Lending Feature

    One of my favorite details about the Nook—the 14-day "lending"—just got a lot less enticing. Turns out there are very specific rules about this lending process, and they pretty much nullify the feature's promise. More »

    Barnes & Noble "Major Event" Next Tuesday

    Barnes and Noble just sent out invites to a "major event in our company's history." So, uh, three guesses as to what they're launching. (Hint: It's a reader.) We'll be there, bringing it to you live.

    Your Choice: A Universal Media Tablet or an E-Ink Reader?

    E-ink readers are great for book replication, but can't play back video. A tablet like Microsoft's Courier or the Apple Tablet may not handle books as well, but can do it all. Which is for you? More »
