ASUS DR-950 eBook Readers Specs & Features Announced
![ASUS DR-950 eBook Readers Specs & Features Announced [ASUS Debuts New DR-950 eReader, Goes After the Kindle]](http://tftscdn4.nexus404.com/Blog/thumbnailimages/alt/ASUS-DR-950-eReader-1TFTSThumb220153.jpg)
The competition in the ebook reader market is getting stiffer by the day. ASUS knows it and by the looks of it they’re ready to play hard ball for a bigger slice of the pie, as the company has just added a new model to their collection (which includes the DR-750 that we already reported, earlier today), the new DR-950 eReader.
Just 0.35-inch (9mm) thick and weighing in at 370g, the new ASUS DR-950 ebook reader won’t charm you with its colors, but a 9 inch screen that boasts an amazing 1024×768 resolution. Other specs include either 2 or 4GB of storage, an SD card slot for expansion, HSDPA and WiFi connectivity, a 3.5mm headphone jack and USB to connect it to your computer. On top of that we’re hearing that it might feature WiMax support.
The new ASUS DR-950 supports PDF, TXT, Audible, MP3, ePub, HTML, JPEG, GIF, PNG and BMP file formats, along with text to speech and RSS.
No word when the DR-950 will be release or how much you’ll have to pay to own one, but at least we have pictures with the device at work.

It’s not so surprising that Asus got in on the game. Their mini laptops sell like hotcakes. I am curious as to what the prices will be. My bet is that they will sell rather rather inexpensively in order to compete.
