It appears eReaders have overcome the dominance of Apple iPad. Perhaps that is why Viewsonic has not launched a MID or a tablet to rival the iPad, but has unleashed 2 eReaders - VEB620 and VEB625.

Both VEB620 and VEB625 are easily able to handle ePub, RTF, plain text files, PDF, HTML and even MP3 files. There is Wi-Fi radio under the bonnet too. The VE620 and VE625 are priced at £205 ($315) and £175 ($269) respectively.

Paul Merak — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 14:50:14 +0000

Viewsonic has launched a new all-in-one in the market. Incorporating a dual core Atom processor and a big 18.5-inch display, it carries a somewhat low resolution of 1366x768. Other features include webcam, Ethernet, WiFi b/g, six USB 2.0 prots, 4-in-one card reader and DVD RW drive. The Viewsonic VP190 will carry a price tag of $599

The resolution it carries is a big shame. After all, even 10-inch netbooks are carrying the same amount of pixels as sported by that mammoth 18.5-inch screen.
