I saw the article in Yediot. I really don't care what is inside, I
want to know how much storage it has, if it has a USB port or memory
card slot for extra storage, the size and type of the screen and what
formats it reads. It's also awfully expensive, more than a Kindle or
Nook but less than an iPad.
I may have misunderstood the article, but I thought that it cost
almost 2,000 NIS when you bought the reader and the bundle of books.
Since I have no idea of what books it reads, I was not sure the bundle
was needed, or I could just use it to read books I already have, or
can download for free.
I was going to show my wife the article, but I can wait. I'd like to
get one for my birthday, which by that time (the end of the year) it
probably will be 250 NIS on closeout at Steimatsky's. :-(

situation. i.e possessing less facts or information than can be found
in the Wikipedia.
