Bebook is going to be showing off a new e-reader at IFA 2011 from Sept 2nd to 7th in Berlin, Germany. The new device they are showing off is an e-ink based ebook reader dubbed the Bebook Club S.
The Bebook Club S features a six inch Pearl e-Ink display! It has 1 GB of internal Flash storage, but you can boost it to 32 GB via the SD card. It is running a 800 MHZ processor, which is on par with the new Nook Simple Touch and Kobo Touch. Of course, this device is NOT a touchscreen, so you will have to navigate around via the D-Pad.
One thing it has going for it is that it has a 3.5mm headphone jack to listen to audio books or MP3’s. It also has a mini USB input so you can easily transfer books, audio, pictures and more to your e-reader.
