New Nook clone shows up from no where

June 21st, 2011 by Nate Hoffelder · 1 Comment · hardware news

The Nook might be discontinued, and the Spring Design Alex is long dead, but that’s not going to stop the copycats.

The ebook reader at right is an unnamed Alex clone running Android. it has a 6″ E-ink screen and a 3.6″ (480×272) capacitive touchscreen. I’m not sure who made it (though the menu suggests it’s a Rockchip design). It has Wifi, a SD card slot, and an indeterminate amount of Flash storage.

It’s available from Paradigm Shift, and they want to sell it in quantities of 1k or more.
