We’ve seen 3G, Wi-Fi capabilities, touchscreens, and the like in plenty of readers on the market. What Cool-er focuses on is putting those features into lighter, thinner, and cheaper<\/i> gadgets. I suppose that explains why they saw the need to make the Compact and announce that it’s got the smallest footprint of any reader out, even if Sony<\/a> might disagree with that claim. Either way, the Compact is still among the smaller devices and still sounds rather good given Cool-er’s budget-friendly price tags.<\/p>\n

Thes new readers will be shown off at CES, but they’ll be hitting the shelves Spring to mid-2010.<\/p>\n

Interead Announces New COOL-ER Ereader Models<\/p>\n

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 4 \/PRNewswire\/ — Interead, makers of the COOL-ER line of ereaders, today announced new models that will be introduced at the 2010 International CES\u00ae in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

* At only 6.7″ x 4.6″ x 0.41″ (170 mm x 117 mm x 10 mm), the amazingly affordable and portable COOL-ER Compact has the smallest footprint of any ereader while still maximising the reader experience with a 6″ E Ink\u00ae screen. With 2GB onboard memory (expandable via SD card to 6GB total), it easily holds thousands of ebooks.<\/p>\n

* COOL-ER Classic, the lightest and most elegant ereader currently available, has quickly become a favourite of readers around the world, and will be offered in exciting new colours.<\/p>\n

* Weighing in at only 5.8 ounces (164 grams), COOL-ER Connect adds the convenience of WiFi and ease of a touch screen, ideal for readers on the move.<\/p>\n

* Available in mid-2010, COOL-ER 3G adds robust 3G connectivity to the ereader experience to download 1,400+ periodicals and 2 million + books wherever they are.<\/p>\n

All COOL-ER ereaders come in numerous vibrant colours, which now include Midnight Blue and Orange Crush, bright new additions to the colour line-up. Working in every country on the planet, COOL-ER ereaders support ebooks in every language and have menus in English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Russian, Japanese and Chinese, and also support multiple zoom levels to create a customized and comfortable reading experience.<\/p>\n

COOL-ER Classic is currently available from premier global retailers and www.COOLREADERS.com. COOL-ER Compact and COOL-ER Connect will be available in Spring 2010, and COOL-ER 3G will be available in mid-2010.<\/p>\n

Any of the more than 2 million books from COOL-ER’s companion online bookstore, COOLER-EBOOKS.com, can be shared with up to five other readers to let friends and families share the works they love. COOL-ER works with ebooks in all commonly used ebook formats, including EPUB and PDF.<\/p>\n

Neil Jones, Interead’s CEO, commented: “As we have seen the ereader market evolve over the last year, it has become clear that the ereader is now a lifestyle device—not just a niche gadget. As such, it’s important that we offer a range of ereaders to accommodate a variety of preferences and reading habits, and this product range does just this.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
