Bloomberg Businessweek has a report that seems to indicate Samsung’s ereaders may have gone a bit Apple-shy:

This month, days before the eReader was to hit stores, Samsung delayed the launch and called the device back for retooling, said a company employee who asked not to be named. Samsung may add a color screen, 3G wireless capability, and a better battery, this person says. "Samsung is revisiting its approach to the e-reader market in the U.S.," spokeswoman Katie Seifert said in a statement.

This is referring to the ereader with the 10-inch screen – Samsung had four different models on display at CES.   A 10-inch e-ink display does seem something of a hard sell post-iPad.

Samsung’s 6-inch E6 ereader was supposed to be available soon in the US and connect with Barnes & Noble for content.  The E6 promises to be a feature-rich ebook reader.  Samsung is also said to be launching at least one of its ereader models (dubbed the SNE-60) in the UK within the next few months.
