Is it better than Kindle 2?
How much will it cost?
Will each e-book cost almost 500 wow gold if I were to compare?

I think you are mistaken, here the novelty of this stuff is the emphasis on the ebook reader and the possibility to get them now online. The previous model did not had an e-Book reader

FIne, but WHAT formats does this e-book reader support?
Does it support .prc or other multi platform formats? This would make the device interesting for me.

Great, thank you
FYI, I couldn't find it on Sharp's homepage either.
They do install a number of e-books in advance, but those are all dictionaries or travel books bij National Geographic.

The internal memory of the device is 200mb.
