CES Unveiled: Alex, eDGe e-Book Readers

Alex e-book reader

The CES Unveiled event rocked tonight with thousands of attendees flooding the aisles. Hundreds of vendors exhibited the wares they are showing off at the CES this year. Kevin and I hit the floor and looked at a lot of stuff. Here are the top gadgets that caught my eye at the show:

Spring Designs Alex e-book reader. The Alex is that dual-screen reader that runs Android and features a color touchscreen much larger than the one on the Nook. Spring Designs just signed a deal with Google to bring their scanned book library to the Alex.

Entourage eDGe. The eDGe is the dual screen reader that uses two big screens to provide additional capability than just e-book reading. This reader also runs Android which is fully accessible on the color touchscreen. The other screen is a typical e-Ink screen for reading books.

We saw some cool notebooks too but we are going to spend some private hands-on time tomorrow with them so I’m sure we’ll have pics and maybe some video to share. Be sure and follow our coverage for the entire week so you won’t miss anything new and exciting.

It was great to see our podcast co-host Matt Miller today, along with lots of old friends.
