French company Bookeen introduces their fourth-generation electronic book reader, the Cybook Opus. It has a foot print of 4.2″ x 6″ x 0.4″ inches and weighs 5.3 oz (150g), which puts it 0.5 oz more than an iPhone 3GS. It features E Ink electronic ink with 12 font sizes, 4-level greyscale and a 200 dpi display. It has an accelerometer that allows it to switch from portrait to landscape mode automatically, which will appeal equally to left and right-handed readers. It ships with 75 classics free of charge; stores up to 1 000 titles in 1GB of built in flash memory, and 3 000 more on a microSD card. It can support HTML, PDF, EPUB or TXT formats without any conversions.
