Here’s another eBook reader that likely won’t sell well…this time it’s the Words Gear courtesy of Panasonic. It’s got a 5.6in color LCD screen at an SVGA resolution of 1024×600. 325 grams with a battery life of about 6 hours.
Good specs, but the also-new Sony Reader with it’s fancy E Ink probably has it beat, even tho it’s only b&w and with lower-res.
The slightly-stilted product name Words Gear seems to be derived from the phrase “the instrument which spins words”.
