New Ectaco Jetbook Ebook Reader
The Ectaco Jetbook Ebook Reader has it's advantages over the Amazon Kindle, Sony Reader and Barnes and Noble Nook that may sway some to give this wireless reading device serious consideration. The biggest would be price. The Ectaco is currently priced at $179.95 (price varies a little with color choice) whereas all the aforementioned ereaders are over $250.The next big difference is portability. For those who want an electronic book device that is ultra-portable, this would be the one. It has a 5-inch screen and only weights 7.5 ounces. But the screen size, which makes the device small also may be a disadvantage too. All the other ebook readers from Amazon, Sony and Barnes & Noble have a diagonal screen size of 6 inches or more and all weigh more than 10 ounces. It all depends on what is most important to you. Bigger screen or easy stow away? Note that the Ectaco does have 6 different font sizes and several popular typefaces so that you can customize your reading experience.

Below are some Ectaco Jetbook Readers available from sellers on Amazon, but I would not purchase from them unless the price is less than what is offered from either Ectaco or Amazon and/or free shipping is provided which both these companies offer as well.
