July 28, 2009 at 18:20Samsung's first e-book
The popularity of e-books is growing so fast that other giants began to pull up to a profitable business besides Sony. Today, Samsung announced the start of sales in Korea of its first e-reader.
The SNE-50K device costs $ 274. The book turned out to be thin - 9 mm and light - 185 grams (versus 250 for Sony). However, the ease was largely bought by the small screen size of 5 inches.
Samsung SNE-50K can open both plain text documents from PDF, and Microsoft Office files. Communication with a computer via USB. Batteries enough to view 4320 pages.
