China’s Dangdang Launches E-Reader, Sells It for Under $100

A long time after its rumored April launch, Chinese e-commerce site Dangdang (NYSE:DANG) has just unveiled its own e-reader. Called the Doucon, it has a Kindle-esque e-ink screen and is tightly integrated with Dangdang’s own e-book store which launched in December of last year, supporting the purchasing of e-books from within the Doucan device. Dangdang’s e-reader will sell for 599 RMB (US$95), though the first 10,000 units are being let go for just 499 RMB. Here’s its product page on Dangdang. As for specs, it will be a tiny bit smaller that the Amazon Kindle, yet 10 grams heavier:

・6-inch e-ink screen
・800 x 600 pixels resolution screen
・Android 2.2
・4GB of onboard storage
・8.5mm thick body
・230 grams It also comes pre-loaded with 500 e-books, including the entire top 10 list of bestsellers on Dangdang’s e-bookstore. But since it seems to support all sorts of formats, users can always side-load a bunch of PDFs or ePub files from wherever – such as search engine giant Baidu, and its online library of e-book titles. The Dangdang Doucan will be up against the Shanda Bambook, the Fan Shu Yambook (in which Baidu invested last year), and a whole host of minor brand manufacturers. Amazon’s Kindle has never launched officially in China, so that’s not really a factor.

Recently we looked at a survey which claims that Chinese consumers think e-books should cost a mere 3.5 RMB (50 cents) each, making it a tough proposition to make money from an e-bookstore.

中国のDangdangが電子書籍リーダーを発売、価格は100ドル以下

4月に発売されると噂が立ってようやく、中国のインターネットショッピングサイト、Dangdangは自社開発による電子書籍リーダーを公開した。Doucanと名付けられたそれは、KIndleにも採用されている電子ペーパーを採用し、昨年12月に始まったDangdangが運営する電子書籍ストアに対応しており、Doucan端末上で電子書籍の購入が可能である。
Dangdangの電子書籍リーダーは599元（95USドル)で売られ、さらに先着一万個は499元になる。
これがDangdangによる製品の詳細である。AmazonのKindleより僅かに小さく、重量も10グラム程重いだけである。

・6インチ 電子ペーパースクリーン採用
・800 x 600 ピクセル
・Android 2.2
・4GB内蔵メモリ
・8.5ミリの薄型ボディ
・230グラム
さらに、初期状態でDangdangの電子書籍ストアの売り上げトップ10を含む500冊もの書籍があらかじめダウンロードされた状態になっている。
ユーザーは、検索エンジンのBaiduやオンライン上の電子書籍リストを通じて、PDFやePub形式でいつでも書籍をダウンロード可能だ。
DangdangのDoucanはShandaのBambookやFan ShuのYambook(昨年Baiduが投資した)、その他いくつかの競合機種との争いに直面するだろう。中国ではAmazonのKindleは公式にサービスを行っていないので、競合することはないだろう。

最近では、中国の顧客は電子書籍は一冊3.5元(50セント)程度であるべきと考えているという調査結果が出ている。
この結果は電子書籍ストアで利益を得ることが難しい現状を示している。

メッセージからゲームへ:Kakao Talkは韓国でゲームセンターのサービスを開始

私達が最後にKakaoと話したのは、上海で開催されたMobile Asia Expoでのことだった。そこで彼等は、今後数週間以内に、「Game Center」サービスが開始されることをほのめかしていた。
そしてちょうど昨日、この韓国の企業のGame Centerは韓国人ユーザーへ向けて、ベータ版のサービスの提供を開始した。kakao.com/gameから見ることが出来るが、今のところはAndroidのみの対応となっており、iPhoneへの対応も早いうちに開始される見込みだ。

今現在、豊富なゲームがプレイ可能で、WeMade EntertainmentやNextAppsといった国内のゲームメーカーから提供されているタイトルも遊べる。
このゲーム用プラットフォームに加え、広告やメディアコンテンツ、バーチャル上のアイテム、携帯端末を介した商業などの他の分野でも、この韓国企業はビジネスに乗り出す計画を持っている。

Hello.
Here is a question about canon 1D merk3 I've bought from you a few days ago.
Its AF function is not working when I attached my lens. Then I brought it to Canon service center and I was told there "There is something wrong with the body you shipped not my lens".

I want to know whether there's been this problem with it before you had shipped it.
No comments was about it on explainaition for this product.

Can I revive the cost of repairing it or replace it?
I hope you reply as soon as possible.
