I find this mini reader very interesting, maybe a bit too barebone.

    Oh sick, now I can have a sub-phone-screen-sized device on which to read books that is only accessible when I also have my phone! This will definitely be used by human people!

      actually you can use it on its own, detached from the phone. keeping it with you phone is just a possibility.

        Well sure, but I always have my phone is the point. I already have my ebooks on my phone for all the situations in which I would use this.

        Granted the display is nicer than a phone screen, but again smaller and size is the thing that sucks the most about a phone screen for reading so it’s kind of a wash
