The OYO is another ereader that surfaced at IFA 2010.  From Thalia, Germany’s second largest bookseller, the OYO should be available in October for €139

Medion is Thalia’s hardware partner for the OYO ereader.

The OYO will be supported by Thalia’s ebook store.  An ereader with a touchscreen with a price tag in the Kindle 3’s ballpark — looks interesting.  One feature that is notably missing is a dictionary.  A 3G version is said to be in the works. 

Lessen.net has uploaded a video of the OYO from IFA.  It is in German.
