Astak EZ Reader on sale until end of Sept

I just saw that Astak’s 5″ EZ Reader is on sale at $199 until the end of September. That’s one of the best prices for an e-ink reader I’ve seen, especially one that has 20-plus open formats, including PDF, DOC, and HTML, AND plays MP3s (for audio books or music), AND has 8 levels of greyscale and extra storage up to 16 GB. AND you can also read digital library books on it! It even comes with a leather cover.

It’s one of the e-ink readers I’ve been seriously thinking about getting. Open format is important to me–and so is price. Check out the ZDNet review; they like it, too!

The other ebook reader I’m still considering is the Cool-er ebook reader, @ $250.

Do you have an e-ink ebook reader? Do you like it?
