Conclusion
Augen The Book has solid hardware, a nice case, and it meets my minimum requirements for reading ability. Even though I had problems with the Wifi, this is still a very good e-reader if you can get it for $89. I would not get it at the $139 price; for only $10 more you can get the Nook Wifi.

Black Friday e-reader sales roundup // Nov 25, 2010 at 8:05 am
[...] (another 7″ LCD Kindle Clone) has shown up in a Menards’s add for $69 on Black Friday (review). This might actually be the best value of the day. I thought it was a decent e-reader, and at $69 [...]
I thought this was a great value, however I find it very hard to download anything to it or even access any help IE: chapter breaks. Maybe someone can help me with this because if not it’s going back.
i had mine for two years its done its wonders but i cant fine any sound on mine oe hardware.
and too long to download but i did get a good price
I bought the book at Kmart and I have only been able to download 3 books
and lost all the free books that were on the tablet. Battery doesn’t last that long about 3 hours a week and that is only using 1/2 hours a day
