In Praise Of . . . The Que Reader

Posted at 8:50AM Thursday 14 Jan 2010

Simple to use, easy to read and light as a feather, the Que's e-ink screen looks and works like touch-sensitive paper – and feels more powerful than competitors like Amazon's Kindle. It is not without its problems – including the speed limitations of e-ink, which make it feel like an early 1990s computer, and a high price tag of at least £400 – but the Que marks a significant advance, nonetheless.
