hmm - that's cool and all, but wake me up when the "and a"
is followed by "bucket of chiken"

I by "bucket of chicken" I mean price < $300
and by "price < $300" I mean price < $275ish]]>Jan 7th 2010 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/
Add pdf converted email attachments, downloaded files and manuals of all sorts and it becomes a green, portable, filing cabinet.

Even better would be if the scanner could WiFi direct to the Que to avoid the need for a PC/Mac to do the processing - doubt that's going to happen, though high end scanners have the ability to create pdfs directly so maybe someday the scanner can handle it itself.

Not a glitzy toy - a tool

anything else it could do would be a convergence bonus.]]>Jan 7th 2010 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/

Waiting for the Apple Table though...sorry but that's probably going to be a GAME CHANGER...]]>Jan 7th 2010 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/

I don't look so foolish now suggesting people should wait till the first half of 2010.

I was really looking forward to this ereader and one of the bigger reasons why I was holding off on the nook, but at this price I"ll pass.

And the touchscreen. We all know how Sony shit the bed with their touchscreen reader. Does this one have the same problem?

And how much?

Oh freaking hell. the SCREEN is only a 10 inch display:
From the web site:
It’s large 8-1/2" x 11" shatterproof display looks and reads like paper
AND
Display (viewable area): 10.5-inch diagonal, 944 x 1264 pixels at 150ppi, 8 gray levels
All this time they have been saying a 8 1/2 by 11 display but that is pure BS!
Sons of bitches!

My ass! $799 compared to $489 (Kindle DX) !!!!

And of course the usual BS attempts while trying to skim the cat:
4GB version vs 8GB version for $100 more....
Like it's hard to throw in a SD slot....

Sorry Plastic Logic. $799 is a deal-breaker for me]]>Jan 7th 2010 8:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/Jan 9th 2010 7:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/plastic-logic-que-proreader-first-hands-on/
This is priced too high - while it's great that the QUE has blackberry and Outlook support - some of us just want a sexy, sleek device that can do everything. I could do w/o the blackberry bells and whistles as I am an iphone owner, but this would be a great feature for those in meetings who want to discreetly read email on their QUE rather than rudely trackballing their way through their crackberry. ]]>Jan 7th 2010 9:40PM
