A somewhat different take on the e-reader, Spring Design’s Alex is a handheld that operates Android with a 3.5” color LCD touchscreen (for browsing and graphics) and a 6” EPD screen for text.


Introduced at CES, the Alex is a dual-screen e-reader with a conventional EPD screen for text and a smaller LCD at the bottom specifically designed for Android usage –web surfing, multimedia, etc., although the monochrome display is also capable of displaying whatever the user wishes. At $359, the Alex is priced accordingly for a device that is, on paper, better than a Nook/Kindle but not as powerful as the iPad.


- 3.5″ (320 x 480) capacitive color touchscreen LCD, 6″ (600 x 800) monochrome EPD screen
- Marvell Monahan PXA303 624MHz CPU
- 256Mb DRAM, 2Gb Flash Memory
- Wireless G
- mini USB, microSD, 2.5mm Jack, Microphone, Stereo Speakers
- 1530mAh Lithium-Polymer Battery (6 Hours Battery Life)
- 4.7 x 8.9 x .4 inches @ 310 grams
