"(The Kogan 6 Reader) would bring digital e-book reading to the masses... We're seeing e-book readers dropping in price, but many are still far too expensive for mainstream use. When you have these devices up to and above $500, you're really asking too much of Australian consumers," said Ruslan Kogan, the founder of Kogan Technologies.
The company will sell the Kogan 6 Reader for $189 with free shipping during the presale period. The device comes with a bundled leather case.
