Being a journalist by education and early in my career, I’m always interested in the newest technologies that may help newspapers and give us a new way to read them.
Poynter’s Monique Van Dusseldorp had a news item from iRex Technologies on Dec. 23. According to the release Van Dusseldorp received, the wireless Internet gadget is: “[T]he first complete solution for portable electronic reading and writing….The always up-to-date information and low cost structure should make it easier to reach and even define new markets.”
It’s scheduled for arrival to iRex’s business partners — whoever they are — by April 2006.

Oh, and if anyone from iRex reads this, I am open to giving your new gadget (what is it called?) an honest trial. Just contact me.
