Home E-Reader
the Home E-Reader is a wireless device that hooks to your PC and provides a eBook reading experience. It is currently in the prototype phase. It was never released. This page remains for historical reasons.
[edit] Overview
From the web site:
The Home E-Reader is a small handheld portable Windows SideShow device that connects wirelessly to a Windows Vista PC. It combines the convenience of electronic documents with wireless access to Windows Vista. It has a reflective E Ink type display that is optimized for reading documents so that reading with the Home E-Reader is as comfortable as it is on paper. It can cache a large number of pages on the device so that it can also be used offline. It also includes stylus capability.
The Home E-Reader uses the SideShow as the primary GUI and Windows Vista as the means by which pages are actually rendered for display on the device.
