e-Book Reader news from Frankfurt

The iwr Blog reported that e-book readers are big news at the Frankfurt Book Fair. While the expected Amazon and Sony were "conspiquous in their absence", there was much talk about e-book readers. According to iwr, Wiley hinted that they and other specialist publishers may get involved in driving the adoption of e-Book readers forward.

iRex Technologies were there with the iLiad... but where was Amazon's Kindle?
