Kindle doppelganger? The gang at Tech-On stumbled upon that little number at that week’s Tokyo’s Digital Publishing Fair, and unless our eyes deceive us, that snowflake’s the spitting image of Amazon’s e-book reader. It comes from Founder worldly, Inc., the Japanese unit of Chinese Peking University Founder Group Corp., and aesthetics aside, the screen comes from the same manufacturer (E Ink Corporation) and even lets you insert a SIM card and download directly to the device. And yet, despite the evidence, the company claims its Gadget was “independently developed” and has nothing to do with the Kindle. certain, whatever you say, wink wink, nod nod. The so-labeled WeFound is heading to China at the end of 2009 for around $209, with a possible release in Japan sometime after.
