I’m a Kindle owner and can’t overemphasize how much I love the device. Now there’s a new eBook reader in the line up.
 

The eSlick can now be preordered and can be shipped in just five to seven weeks. The cost of the eSlick is $229.99 direct and with a suggested retail price of $259.99.
 

The Foxit eSlick uses the same screen tech that is used in both the Kindle and Sony’s own reader. The resolution is 600 x 800 and it weighs 6.4 ounces. It does not have any wireless capability (something the Kindle has) but substitute it with a USB port. It has 128MB of RAM and has a SD card slot that can read cards up to 4GB. It also has a built-in MP3 player.
