In the marketplace for a 165 ($240) e-reader that isn't a Kindle? Of march not. But if you were, you would shortly be able to outlay that allowance on the just-leaked Sony PRS-T1.
Gone is the smooth aluminum body of its predecessor, transposed by black, white or burgundy-red plastic. New is multi-touch, with the Kobo-like touchscreen navigation assimilated by pinch-to-zoom (presumably for varying rise sizes). Also new is a stylus, ready to be mislaid inside of minutes, together with other Kobo-inspired feature: the T1 will manifestation the stream book's casing on the nap screen.
The rest of the features are only what you'd expect: Wi-Fi, 2Gb memory, augmentable by a microSD card, a six-inch e-ink screen, a one-month battery life and a feather-like weight of 168 grams (six ounces).
You can see the sum at Dutch Web site BOL. Or rather, you can see the cache of the right away taken-down page. Expect the reader to cost reduction than this when it launches in the U.S.
