Publisher giant Hearst released more details for the Skiff Reader, its self-produced e-book device. The new model is one of the largest e-book readers ever at 11.5 inches and provides a 1200×1600 touchscreen display better suited to magazines and newspapers. Its use of e-paper is equally new: rather than glass, it uses an LG-made flexible steel foil that resists shattering. The reader doesn’t have a release date or pricing, but unlike the Kindle it will be available in Sprint’s retail shops when it releases sometime later this year.
