Fujitsu is soon to launch the FLEPia e-ink e-book this coming fall. The latest gadget by Fujitsu is rumored to cost $941. This A4-sized e-ink reader has advanced features like Wi-Fi capability, 50 hours of continued use, and six control buttons plus a scroll key for scrolling. This allows users to have a better view of visual alignment. The FLEPia contains a 4GB SD flash card for memory space, and is 320-grams in weight, and about 12-millimeters in thickness.
The FLEPia e-ink e-book was once rumored to be having an integrated backlight, but that was pushed aside by Nikkei. These new, set-to-be-released-e-readers are an improvement from Fujitsu’s color e-ink prototypes. Those are capable of having a whole VGA display into a 4.7-inch x 6.3-inch handheld tablet units.
The FLEPia units will be available in three color motifs, namely white pearl, silver, and the usual pink pearl colors.
