Skiff e-reader for magazines and newspapers

Check out the report on the Skiff e-reader at geek.com.  The Skiff is a black and white e-reader designed with magazine and newspaper like content in mind.  It’s large screen and slim design make it appealing to road warriors – take the reader and you have hundreds of magazines and newspapers in less space.  Click here to see it in 306 degree rotation.

2010 will be the year of the e-reader with major announcements set to hit regularly over the next few months.

While there will be a lag before they hit here, they will make it.  Publishers say the e-readers will generate incremental business.  I don’t full agree with this.  Sure, they will drive some incremental business.  They will also attract some consumers who purchase magazines and newspapers over the counter today.
