The current production from German business Txtr is anticipated to sell for under & euro; 10 or about $ 13 when it hits the market, with any luck sometime before the vacation season. Certainly, for such a reasonable price, you’re not getting a whole lot of bells and whistles right here. There’s no touchscreen, no backlight, no 3G– not even WiFi is baked into the impossibly thin 5mm body.

Offering a front-lit e-reader isn’t really reserved simply for the heaviest hitters. Bookeen is leaping into that still-exclusive club with the Cybook Odyssey HD FrontLight. Its lengthily-named upgrade to the initial Odyssey concentrates on the read-anywhere light, and a light-weight body, as its standout parts– at just under 6.4 ounces, it’s even more featherlike than Amazon and Barnes & Noble counterparts with similarly legible screens.
