BeBook e-reader demoed

Many like to call these e-readers, or e-book readers or even e-paper display devices, like the Kindle, BeBook is a device with a display that looks exactly like as if you were reading from paper. Of course, compared to paper, this is much more friendlier to the environment in that you’re not wasting any paper.

The BeBook which retailed at £249.99 both online and at the show, can read almost any popular file formats that you can think of, pdf, mobi, prc, epub, lit, txt, fb2, doc, html, rtf, djvu, wol, ppt, mbp, chm, bmp, jpg, png, gif, tif, rar, zip, mp3 (for audio books) as well as RSS newsfeeds. With an incredibly long battery life, one charge will last 7000 pageturns, though it may be on the low side in terms of internal memory (512MB), the BeBook makes up for that by having aSD memory card slot.
