Cheapest eReader Now On Sale In The UK

By Nate Hoffelder on February 23, 2011 8:42 AM

And it costs £30! Okay, that might not actually be the cheapest eReader, but it is the cheapest one with an E-ink screen.

Makro, a UK based electronics chain, is currently advertising the ReadMe Classic in its weekly circular. This 6″ e-reader from Binatone has 2GB Flash storage, a SD card slot, speakers, and comes with a case and headphones. Ebook support includes TXT, PDF, HTML, CHM, RTF, FB2, EPUB, TCR, Palm Doc, Open E-book, Open reader, MOBI.

This same eReader is listed elsewhere for £139, which should tell you how big the discount is.

The picture in the advert is barely usable, so here’s a better one:
