“The Kno is really huge. It’s not much of a portable, but as
students would need to place it on a table to work from it as they
would in a school it may just fit right.

“The Kno will be hooked up to an online store for purchasing
books. The reason it’s so large is that it needs to display already
created textbook materials. Stylus input will allow for students to
make annotations, highlights and sticky notes.

“The developers want to price the device below $1000 and it will
be available for pre-order in October.”
