By Chris Meadows

Slashgear links to a MobileRead forum thread on iRiver’s new “Story” e-ink reader. Six-inch screen, supports PDF, epub, txt, ppt, doc, xls and other formats natively plus a comic reader. iRiver starts taking pre-orders in Korea on September 16th, at a price range of 350,000-400,000 KRW ($282-$323 US). iRiver is reportedly in talks with overseas distributors as well.
