Cyber Monday Blues no comments
I’m not yet seeing many deals on ereaders for Cyber Monday. Perhaps ereaders are selling well enough without discounts?
Newegg does have a couple of ereaders on sale though. They are selling the Sony
PRS-600 Touch ereader for $279.00 with free shipping. So far this is the lowest price I remember seeing for the Touch.
Newegg also has the Aluratek Libre Reader Pro in white (black is sold out) for $137.00, again with free shipping.
The Libre ereader has a 5” LCD screen without backlighting and supports PDF, TXT, FB2, EPUB, MOBI, PRC, TF, MP3, BMP, JPEG, GIF and animated GIF formats. Thanks no doubt to the LCD screen the battery gets only 24hrs continuous use (or 2 weeks on standby) before needing recharging.
The Libre comes with a 2GB SD card filled with 100 public domain titles.
The Aluratek Libre ereader appears to be based on the same hardware as the Jetbook Lite. The main difference appears to be that the Jetbook Lite uses four AA batteries whereas the Libre has a rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery.
