I wouldn’t call it a Kindle clone just yet, pending official price announcements. there are differences to the keyboard. The iRiver Story supports txt, PDF and EPUB files as well as DOC, Excel and PowerPoint. It also features a Comic Viewer with Zip file support. It can view in JPG, GIF and BMP. It plays MP3, WMA and OGG music files as well. The lack of WiFi or 3G means you will need your PC to download reading materials. Oh, well, it should also make it very affordable.
