When I google "Telefunken+TEBR+700" from S.Africa, I get only only a list of S.A. URLs. Is google 'zu klug' and knows I won't go to Germany to buy this Telefunken-Ebook, or is Telefunken test-marketing it first only in S.Africa. I.e. it's not yet a proven product.
Prices here are R2'500/9 =ca. Euro: 277, which is OK if the ePaper lasts. I've read that ePaper displays have a short life?

-------- The box, seen through the 'schauvenster' where the sales-assistants had no pamphlet claims that iRiver can 'run WinXP & Vista'. But I can't imagine that a x86 CPU could give a good battery life; which is the most important attribute of an ePaper device.
TEBR-700 spec. is: -Display size6 inch (800x600) -Processor Arm9 Core Operating system Linux 2.6 -Battery Li-ION 1700mAh -Battery Life 10000 screen refresh (est. 3 months based on reading speed of 500 pages per week)
So, is Telefunken TEBR 700 Ebook sold in Germany yet?
Thanks in advance,
