Toshiba adds 6-inch BookPlace Mono to its Japan e-reader lineup

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Toshiba adds 6inch BookPlace Mono to its Japan ereader lineup" border="0" data-src-height="348" data-src-width="208" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/toshiba-e-reader-04-04-13-02.jpg" /></div><div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">While Toshiba's already got a bevy of e-readers on tap for its Japanese online e-book store, it just added a budget-oriented monochrome offering: the BookPlace Mono. It's a slightly smaller but otherwise identical looking version of its BookPlace DB50 reader, carrying a 6-inch E Ink screen with 758 x 1,024 pixels, along with an 800MHz CPU, 512MB of RAM, WiFi, 4GB internal memory, a Micro SD slot and a USB port. According to Japanese e-book site <em>ITMedia</em>, 9,800 yen ($100) gets you the reader plus a set of books, with the price climbing to 13,500 yen ($150) after that. Changes to Toshiba's BookPlace e-book store mean buyers there will have to traipse over to one of a network of bookstores to grab it, though -- either by sneaker or mouse, we presume.</div></div>
