The Ectaco jetbook Color, showcased at CES 2012, is a color touchscreen eReader that features Ectaco's full color E Ink 'Triton' technology.
With a 9.7-inch display and a 1,600 x 1,200 resolution, the Ectaco jetbook Color features muted color tones and a touchscreen display. However, the display can only be activated with the accompanying stylus, says GoodEReader.com.
But, an awesome feature is that you'll get a long battery life because the Ectaco jetbook Color's is low-powered, and its muted display is great for studying and reading digital textbooks. In fact, Ectaco is aiming the device at the educational segment, rather than the masses. Included in the eReader are some interesting educational tools and apps such as an SAT prep course and interactive Periodic Table.
