Sony’s e-book readers are hanging in there, continuing to give Amazon’s Kindle some competition. Sony has announced that it will market two new e-book readers at the end of this month, PC World reports.

One is a direct competitor, a touch-screen Sony reader with a 6-inch screen to sell for $299, the same price as the Kindle. Sony is calling the other one a pocket e-book reader. It’s got a 5-inch screen and is bargain-priced at $199.

Dell lets loose Vostro 10 series from bullet-time
We knew it was coming soon, and here it is, Dell’s latest entry to the Vostro line of low-cost notes that won’t break the bank — but don’t give off that netbook vibe, either. The three models are the 14.1-inch 1014 and 1088, and the 15.6-inch 1015. All feature Intel Core 2 processors, optical drives, 802.11n, two megapixel webcams, and maximum memory and storage allocations of 4GB and 320GB respectively. Other than screen size the only difference seems to be higher-end ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330 graphics in the 1088, while the others make do with a rather more pedestrian Intel solution. Dell hasn’t graced these with an official price in the US just yet, but that should change any minute now.
