Officeworks is selling two models of the Pico Life eBook Reader, starting at AU$238. the Stash eBook reader with a colour LCD screen for AU$129. This appears to be the same unit as the Delstar DS1005 or DS1006 (with a 5 or 6 inch screen). One limitation seems to be the lack of support for the ePub eBook format, nor any wireless interface.
