Samsung To Showcase Its First E-Book Devices At ISE 2010
The Samsung E6 and E101 feature a built-in electromagnetic resonance (EMR) stylus pen that allows users to annotate their reading selections, calendars and notes unlike other e-Books. This dedicated pen prevents mistypes caused by hands and other objects that may graze the screen’s surface. A variety of pen and eraser thicknesses make the Samsung e-Book devices perfect for drawing and writing. The E101 goes even further with additional functions, such as calligraphy and editing capabilities (cut, copy and paste) with the stylus pressure sensitivity feature.
“We’ve used our in-depth knowledge of today’s connected, on-the-go consumer to create high-quality e-Books,” said JinHwan Kim, vice president of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “Users will be very pleased with the e-Books’ advanced functionality that makes writing effortless with the advanced handwriting recognition capabilities and reading easy regardless of lighting conditions.”
The Samsung E6 and E101 e-Books are equipped with an e-paper display similar to real paper to reduce eye fatigue and provide an effective reading environment. The global e-Book formats ePub, PDF and TXT are supported by default, and built-in dictionaries can be used just by touching the words with the stylus.
Samsung e-Book users can also listen to music while reading a book with the devices’ MP3 player. Furthermore, Samsung’s unique “Text-to-Speech” engine with the MP3 player functionality can read a book aloud with accurate pronunciations for users who are driving or in noisy environments.
Samsung’s e-Book devices are equipped for wireless connectivity as well. Wi-Fi 802.11b/g allows users to download content such as books and newspapers from a server wirelessly, as well as share content with other devices.
The Samsung E6 and E101 will be available in early 2010.
