Samsung Introduces E-book with Full Physical QWERTY Keyboard
Samsung showcased a couple of e-book readers, the $400 E6 and the $700 E101, at last month's Consumer Electronics Show 2010 in Las Vegas. Though neither is on the market yet, the company has bolstered its upcoming e-reader lineup by adding the E61, which features a full QWERTY keyboard.
The E61 is effectively an E6 with a QWERTY keyboard. A 6-inch screen, removable battery, Bluetooth 2.0, and 802.11b/g WiFi are some of the features common to both the e-readers. There is no word on its release date or price.

Thanks DJFresh. I was gonna say the same. $400-700 for an eBook reader that displays black and white static images? And what's the storage capacity on those? No thanks Samsung, but for $700, I'll go on ahead and buy a super cool and innovative iPad that only does everything for $500.

I'm not a vindictive person but a company that has a $400 and $700 Ebook reader needs a reality check especially with the flood of tablets on the way. Anyone spending more than $300 for an Ebook reader needs to have their head examined and any company trying to sell them for more than that hopefully will take a large financial hit and in result firings will ensue. I will thank Apple for coming in with a $500 entry price to cause all other tablet manufacturer who were hoping to gouge us to rethink their pricing structure and allow healthy competition to reign. F Samsung.
