Plastic Logic’s Que Capacitive-Touch Ebook Reader

Posted in ebooks by Conner Flynn on October 19th, 2009

Plastic Logic's Que Capacitive-Touch Ebook ReaderWe don’t have a ton of details on this one and the official launch won’t happen until January 7 at CES, but Plastic Logic is looking to get into the high end of the e-reader market with its upcoming QUE proReader. The device uses E Ink Vizplex tech in a shatterproof display the size of a regular piece of paper at 8.5 x 11-inches.

It also features 3G wireless capabilities thanks to AT&T and a business-minded ebook store at QUEreader.com to be powered by Barnes & Noble. And yes it has a touchscreen interface, but we aren’t sure if that means the entire display or not. The unit is “less than 1/3-inch thick,” and plays nice with PDF, Word, PowerPoint and Excel, including tools for “interacting with and managing the content,”.

It has us intrigued. We’ll have to wait and see if it’s as unique as it sounds.
