• Ukrainian PocketBook has announced two new eReaders - the Pocketbook 901 with a 9.7-inch basic eReader with e-ink display but no wifi or touchscreen. #
• iRex Technologies, maker of the iRex ereader, filed for bankruptcy protection in the Netherlands. It's unknown yet whether they will be continuing production or not. #

• Amazon apparently delayed the full release of the Kindle's version 2.5 software in order to make some additional adjustments from early user feedback. They don't have any information on new released dates though. Amazon's information is available here. You can read enGadget's article on it here. I'm disappointed - I really wanted the locking feature and the new font sizes. #
