Samsung recently announced their first E-Book Reader: The SNE-50K [Via CNET]. It will be sold in South Korea initially with books provided by a local bookstore chain.
The Samsung SNE-50K e-book has a five inch touch screen and can write and store memos. Weighing a mere 6.5 ounces, it also comes with 512 mb of storage. Downloadable books are offered through Kyobo Bookstore Co., one of South Korea’s largest bookstore chains.
To download a book to the E-reader, download it to a computer and then to the E-reader. The SNE-50K currently does not support wireless downloads or connections to the internet. Software is also included to view MS Office documents and PDFs.
The reader will sell for 339,000 Korean won, or about $270. If you’re interested in trying out this e-book reader not to worry, Samsung is working on an e-book reader to be sold outside of South Korea.
