While you can’t buy a QUE proReader until summer it seems that you can buy the company. Well, maybe not you but someone with a few hundred million in the bank. At least that’s the way the Financial Times is framing a piece focused on UK investor Hermann Hauser, whose venture capital firm has a stake in Plastic Logic

Plastic Logic up for sale even though its QUE proReader isn’t?
We’re not going to engage in too much wild speculation on this piece of information, but there are certainly a few raised eyebrows in Engadget-land right now. Apparently Plastic Logic is no longer offering pre-orders of its QUE proReader, as a tipster of ours discovered while trying to push through his order of the $799.99, 8GB / 3G version of the large-screen device

Well it’s been a wild couple of weeks here at Engadget. Between CES 2010 (our biggest show ever), the Nexus One launch, forthcoming Apple announcements (and loads of Apple rumors ), it’s unlikely we’ll forget the start of our new decade anytime soon.

The Kindle DX with 2.5x the screen area will soon be available outside the US, at its original — somewhat hefty — price Amazon has started taking pre-orders for a global version of the big Kindle DX ebook reader, which will be released on 19 January at the same as last May’s US launch price: $489 (£301). The DX will ship from the US to more than 100 countries including Australia, Hong Kong, Germany, Japan, Norway, Spain, South Africa, and the UK. A zoomable wireless coverage map on Amazon’s site shows where the device’s built-in 3G/Edge/GPRS connection is supported.

Vendors of all sizes are here in Las Vegas introducing products they hope will capitalize on piqued consumer interest and the predicted growth in the e-book market in the year ahead.

Our time this morning with the QUE proReader was all too short, so we took another pass at the device — this time armed to the teeth with our very best touchscreen gestures. We have to say, the more we play with it, the more we like it. The interface is very well thought out, the touchscreen keyboard is very responsive (though a little awkward to type on in landscape mode) and the general functionality is just about perfect for this sort of device
