New Live Pictures Of Asus DR-950 eBook Reader

We previously mentioned an OLED Asus eBook reader to you, and now Asus UK has posted some pictures of the DR-950 eBook reader on Flickr, so we guess that’s what the device will be called. If the pictures are anything to go buy, the device is going to look real slick and the text seems to display real well. It seems like Amazon’s Kindle is going to have a real battle to retain its supremacy in 2010, wouldn’t you think? Specifications for this eBook reader should include:

• 9-inch 1024 x 768 display
• 0.35-inch thick
• 2-4GB of storage
• SD card expansion
• Wi-Fi, HSDPA, and potentially WiMAX
• 3.5mm headphone jack
