A lot of activity around e-book readers at CES keeps going on after the end of the show. Announced readers, most of those at least, are coming out this winter. The new Amazon Kindle DX will be released tomorrow and Spring Design's Alex no sooner then February. In the meantime ASUS has spiced the dish a bit with an info leak about a mysterious DR-570. Well, maybe not so mysterious - it is also an e-book reader but unlike all the others we have, RD-570 has an OLED screen which is a thing you'd want in a reader, gives an unparalleled contrast ratio and improves hugely on battery life.The biggest part of ASUS DR-570 specs remains unannounced. However, some of the features and release date have been stated by ASUS. They say, DR-570 will feature 6" OLED display and ability to playback Flash content over Wi-Fi or 3G network for 122 hours on a single charge. Probably ASUS will add up all the rest of what modern e-reader needs - text-to-speech software, PDF reader, etc. A lot is going to be down to operating system. Today we know some cases of e-book readers using Windows 7 which makes them look more like tablets and other go for mobile operating software like Android. Either way, ASUS will have to charge a lot for DR-570 when it comes out by the end of the year because of the OLED technology, but then that's why everybody will want it.
