It is likely that Asus is going to make its own ebook reader device under the Eee brand, reported by Digitimes. This Eee reader could be seen on the market possibly by the end of this year. It is also implied by the report that another Taiwan based company, MSI plans to expand its portfolio with an ebook reader.
While we have already predicted that there will be an abrupt increase of ebook reader units on the market stimulated by the introduction of the EPUB open standard by Sony, it seems that a prosperous ebook reader time is approaching much faster than we thought. We won’t be surprised to see more units coming out of the surface.
