This one is simply amazing! eDGe is the first dualbook from enTourage Systems. It combines the functions of an e-reader, netbook, notepad, and audio/video recorder and player in one.
The device is pretty complex with features that will let users read e-books, take digital notes, send emails or instant messages, surf the Internet, watch movies and listen to the music – any time, anywhere. For files transfer and data mobility, you could use the wireless capability or use SD card or a USB flash drive instead.
If you have ever came across the limitations of other e-book readers, the eDGe will let you forget all about it, as this device has a built in netbook capabilities. What the reader can’t, it can!
There are four color options to choose from: the midnight-blue, ruby-red, glacier-white and ice-blue.
Left hand screen is a Wacom Penabled, 9.7-inch e-ink 1200×825 display. Meanwhile on the right-hand side, a 10.1-inch display with 1024×600 touchscreen display. Simply an e-Book Reader on left side and a tablet on right side! What a combination!
Obviously, the e-ink display is for reading e-books and ePub and PDF formats are supported. The color touchscreen, on the other hand, is for Google Android OS. The eDGe has 4GB internal memory that is enough for up to 3000 e-books. It supports WiFi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth connectivity and optional EVDO or HSDPA 3G can be equipped.
