Plastic Logic delays Que indefinitely and refunds pre-orders

Plastic Logic has announced that it will not ship the Que. They even are refunding pre-orders. A new shipping date hast not been announced.

A spokesperson for Plastic Logic told Wired’s “Gadget Lab” blog: “Plastic Logic wants to make sure that the product they deliver is the right one for their target business customers in the rapidly changing marketplace. They are continuing to refine the product, technology and features, and are anxious to get in the marketplace as soon as possible.”

Seems that Plastic Logic just is too late, since the iPad set a rather low price border for tablet devices, they will by no chance make the money they’ve dreamed of. It seems the Que is just another piece of vapor ware and Plastic Logic will never manage to come out with anything.

Kindle DX

So if you want an eInk reader that is suitable for reading PDFs and similar documents, it seems the only reliable choice will be the Kindle DX from Amazon with its 10″ Display.
