x 4.6&quot; x 0.41&quot; (170 mm x 117 mm x 10 mm).&#160; It has a 6&quot; E Ink\u00ae screen and 2GB of onboard memory (expandable via SD card to 6GB total).<\/p>\n<h4>COOL-ER Classic<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" alt=\"COOL-ER e-Reader Classic\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/2773\/4244815977_ca2b32161c.jpg\" width=\"123\" height=\"248\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is the one they have available already today at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.coolreaders.com\/\">www.COOLREADERS.com<\/a>.&#160; It will be arriving in new colors though. <\/p>\n<h4>Cool-ER Connect<\/h4>\n<p>This one adds WiFi and touch-screen to the Classic version.&#160; It weighs 5.8 oz.&#160; Scheduled to be available in Spring 2010.<\/p>\n<h4>COOL-ER 3G<\/h4>\n<p>This is the newest e-Reader in their lineup and is slated to be available in mid-2010.&#160; 3G wireless connectivity via AT&amp;T is the big item on this one.<\/p>\n<p>COOL-ER e-Readders work with ePub and PDF and has access to bookstores online like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Cooler-ebooks.com\">www.Cooler-ebooks.com<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>The biggest obstacle these e-Readers will encounter is the pricing compared to the Kindle and Nook.&#160; Because the bookstores they access are less known and likely have a smaller U.S. catalog, the price has to be lower.&#160; Currently the classic COOL-ER e-Reader runs $249 on their website.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/04\/interead-expands-cool-er-e-reader-line-up-announces-additional\/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+weblogsinc%2Fengadget+%28Engadget%29&amp;utm_content=Google+Reader\">via Engadget<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/11976697-7818354348365573024?l=www.geektonic.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/HA3mLu2qcISjfkSLPbEfugayuU4\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/HA3mLu2qcISjfkSLPbEfugayuU4\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/HA3mLu2qcISjfkSLPbEfugayuU4\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/HA3mLu2qcISjfkSLPbEfugayuU4\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?i=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?i=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?i=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?a=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:d35CHgcQbKY\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Brentevans?i=dJqS1UvnIS0:Bene6v6p3hg:d35CHgcQbKY\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/Brentevans\/~4\/dJqS1UvnIS0\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I suspected there will be quite a few challengers to the e-Reader scene at CES this week.&#160;
