Alex: An Android-Powered, Dual-Screen Reader

If it weren’t for the word “Alex” in the title, you’d think the article was referring to the Nook.  Actually, it’s an ebook reader by a company called SpringDesign.

The article also mentions a lawsuit against Barnes & Noble by SpringDesign for taking the idea for the Nook from them.

Either way, if you’ve ever played around with a Nook, you know it’s an unintuitive, slow, horrible awful creature.  Let’s hope the Alex works a bit better.
