  iRex Digital Paper Reader
There are two digital paper books coming out soon. The Sony Reader has been blogged earlier. This is another from iRex, a European company, and is supposed to be shipping this month to some customers.
It is 1024x768 resolution with 16 levels of grey. It is a low power device and supposed to run more than a week without recharging.
It supports pdf, XHTML, and MP3 files among others. It remains to be seen how accessible these books can be made.
