Just a couple of days after they released a 5″ E Ink reader, Astak now released the Mentor – a 6″ reader. It supports several text formats (including PDF and ePub), runs Linux on a 400Mhz processor, has 512Mb memory and an SD card slot, and weights 175 grams. It’s available now for $280. And it includes a SuDoKu game, too.
