はじめに
We stripped down the Samsung E60 eReader to its basic components!
Equipped with a Cortex A8 CPU, 256 Mb of RAM, 2Gb of Flash, USB OTG, Wifi, Bluetooth, SDCard slot and a 6" 600 x 800 e-Ink display, this device plays into the same category as the Amazon Kindle or the B&N Nook.
In Europe and in France particularly, its price has dropped from an introductory 329 Euros down to 99 Euros plus a 50 Euros refund, making it the cheapest available eReader available.
Many thanks to SegmentationFault for providing us with a device!
