It has taken longer than anticipated, but the Boox e-reader that we toyed with at CeBIT (http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/03/video-hands-on-with-onyx-internationals-boox-e-reader/) earlier this year is finally available for order here in the US of A, with shipments expected to begin in a fortnight. Onyx International's 6-inch reader -- which features WiFi, a Vizplex e-ink display, a 532MHz processor, 512MB of memory, a 1,600mAh battery and an SD / SDHC expansion slot -- is bring slung across the seas courtesy of Dulin's Books (http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/09/dulins-books-rolls-out-pocketbook-360-301-ereaders-in-the-us/), and while it won't ship with integrated 3G support, it's still coming here with a lofty $349 price tag affixed to it. Sure, that WebKit browser may impress some, and the bundled white leather cover is a pleasant touch, but we can only wish it luck as it tries to rival the (less expensive and more capable) Nook (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/07/barnes-and-noble-nook-review/) and Kindle (http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/26/amazon-kindle-2-review/).
