Sorry Folks, No Eee Reader at CES 2010
Those who have been waiting for Asus to announce the Eee Reader at the ongoing CES 2010 can kiss their hopes goodbye. Digitimes is reporting that Asustek is not in a rush to manufacture the Eee Reader, since they think that the future of e-book readers is still uncertain.
Another issue which is hampering Asustek’s manufacturing of the Eee Reader. is the lack of content providers. Asustek is currently exploring all possible options. So, releasing an Eee Reader without content partners will not be good for Asustek.
Asustek Chairman Jonney Shih said that the company already has the hardware and so it is not the major concern.
Is it really? Or is Asus still waiting for Apple to announce its iSlate and will observe how the market will react to it?
